Welcome to Cork's Fine Wine and Liquors,LLC

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter 1 day early.  I’ll be taking a little vacation time so I thought I would get the newsletter out before I go.  There won’t be any tastings until next Saturday, August 9^th when we have our 2^nd Annual Customer Appreciation Day.  I’ve got most of the lineup set for the event as we try to get you a smorgasbord of wine, beer, and yes even liquor to go with those steaks and lobsters…ummm OK burgers and dogs.

We have Tom (he ain’t heavy he’s my brother) from Carolina donning his Speedo once again and sampling you on a new line of wines called Festival 34.  He will also have UV Blue Raspberry and Pink Lemonade Vodka.  Jaime from MS Walker will be tasting you on the Hogue wines from Washington State and Four Vines Zinfandel and Naked Chardonnay.  He says he wants to go naked behind the back tasting area since Tom was in a Speedo but we had to put the kibosh on that idea.  And for the guys we have a supermodel in a bikini who will be pouring the new wines from Pannotia Vineyards.

On the beer side we have Vinny and the Bud girls sampling Redhook, Shock Top Wheat Beer, and Wild Blue Lager.  They will also have the ready to drink Margaritaville flavors and Margaritaville Tequilla.  Kristen from L. Knife will have the crazy microbrew cans from Oscar Blues featuring the the new Gordon Beer and Ten Fidy.  We also have the 4 flavors of Leinenkugel representing which are great for the summer.  The BBQ wouldn’t be complete without inviting our neighbors from Narragansett Brewing Co. to round out the beer portion of the event.

In addition to the UV and Margaritaville we will also have the outstanding flavored vodkas from Triple 8 out of Nantucket.  You have to try the vanilla bean it is the best vodka I’ve ever tasted.  They also have a Hurricane Rum and Gayle Force Gin to close things out.

We’re still working on raffle items but so far we have a Coors Light Grill, a Coors double beach chair with a cooler in the middle, a Bud Light lounge chair, Sam Adams Patio Umbrella and lots more.  We will have tons of t-shirts…hats...pint glasses…key chains and other crap to give away as well.  Be sure to check the website (corksfinewine.com) for more info as we get more info on the event.  Don’t forget that Don is a wizard on the grill and is always looking for special orders to challenge his grilling skills.  This was a blast last year and gives us a chance to thank you for being loyal Cork’s customers.
