Welcome to Cork's Fine Wine and Liquors,LLC

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. 

After a very successful launch of the Leinenkugel Sunset Wheat last year they have finally introduced some new flavors.  We will have a Leinenkugel Beer Tasting on Saturday April 26^th from 5 to 7 PM. to launch their 3 new beers.  Many who have tried the Sunset Wheat thought that the beer was very good and that it had a strong resemblance to the milk at the bottom of the bowl of Fruity Pebbles or Fruit Loops.  I know that sounds weird but it really does… but in a good way.  So along those same lines we will sample you on Honey Weiss (Honey Comb), Berry Weiss (Boo Berry or Captain Crunch with Crunch Berries), and Summer Shandy a blend of Weiss beer and lemonade (sorry can’t think of a cereal reference for that concoction).  All kidding aside these are really good beers and will be great for the warm summer months.

We will have a wine tasting this Friday night from 4 to 7 PM.  With the price of gas over $3.50 a gallon and food prices (not to mention beer & wine as well) on the rise I think it’s a good time to feature some bargain wines this week.  I’ve got a couple of new and a couple of old (thanks Matt) 2 for wines that are great values.  1^st up is Osborne Solaz Blanco from Spain.  Next is Barefoot Moscato, a new addition to their popular lineup.  Principato Pinot Noir is fairly new as well and all 3 of these wines are only $6.99 each or 2 for $12.  While most Chianti’s have risen into the $12 to $15 price point we will try Melini Chianti at $8.99 (2 for $16) next.  Similar to the Solaz and the Melini that were brought in by my predecessor the next wine I did not bring into the store either.  It’s Curious Beagle Cabernet and it was brought in by Ted “the wine dog”.  Hopefully it’s good and will not end up on Ted’s bottom shelf special section of the website.

Well the weather has been outstanding lately.  The Redsox are off to an excellent start.  The Celtics are toying with the lowly Hawks.  If only the Bruins could have pulled out game 7 (sorry Wallace).  Don’t forget our 4^th annual Grand Spring Wine Tasting which will be on Friday May 16^th from 4 to 7 PM.  We will also kick-off the Tweeter Center season the day before with a Magic Hat Beer tasting on Thursday from 4:30 to 7:30.  This looks to be the best Tweeter center lineup in many years and with our full and expanding liquor section we want to be your 1 stop package store for the upcoming concert season.
