No. 47 - Feb 2006

No, your Inbox is not telling you lies! This is a brand new edition of the Winetime Newsletter! After a short break and saying farewell to Anthony Burt, the team here now have the job of trying to climb into Anthony's shoes that he left behind. The next few weeks we are going to try new things and retain some of the old to keep the same standard from previous. So hopefully, you will enjoy the upcoming news and events that we have got planned for you, valued Winetime members.

To start the ball rolling, this week we have great tastings on this Friday evening. Michael Shipsides from Wingara Wine Group will be here from 4pm to 7pm, giving you the opportunity to taste the Katnook Founders Block range.

Hailing from the region of Coonawarra, the premium wines are produced from grapes that are selected from across their vineyards.

Their range consisting of a Shiraz , Cab Sauv, Merlot Sav Blanc and Chardonnay, are all excellent wines. These will be on special for $15.95 for the duration of the tasting. We hope to see you there…..

We have all heard how good New Zealand Sauvignon Blancs are and some of you may have even tried them. For the first time in many years we have been able to secure a good amount of the bench mark of these. Cloudy Bay , this wine has been the measuring stick for Sauvignon Blancs around the world.
At $30.95 keep this in mind next time you are in the market for something special or just to go with that seafood platter you should have on the weekend.

As well as this we have over 30 other Sauvignon Blancs to choose from. Which will accompany any outdoor function with the warm weather?
