TopShelf Tuesday
This week's TopShelf Tuesday was a sellout and we hope that everyone enjoyed themselves. We had over 40 requests for the 30 available spaces, but kept it to 30 to ensure that everyone received personal attention. We would love to hear honest feedback from all of the attendees. Please email us about your likes and dislikes, how we could improve the event, and what your thoughts are on increasing attendance to 40? We would also love to hear "theme" suggestions for the next installment of our Educational Series; parallel tasting of Cabernet's from different around the world, True Champagne's, Oregon Pinot's, suggestion? The choice is yours.For those who were not able to attend, here is what you missed including the two "goodies" from John's secret stash* (check our website to find out who John was.):

Rebates
Our April 11 tasting of the Catena Family Tilia Wines was a HUGE success. All of the wines were great and an excellent value but to add to the value they are offering a manufacture's rebate:$1.00 off one (1) 750ml Bottle
$6.00 off three (3) 750ml Bottles
$15.00 off six (6) 750ml Bottles
$36.00 off twelve (12) 750ml Bottles
Our normal price $9.95 per bottle, so the rebates can get one bottle down to $8.95. With our 15% solid case discount, that will take your per-bottle price down to $5.46 (after the mail-in rebate)! You cannot beat that!! And remember that Tilia Label is the same wine that used to be ALAMOS, one our largest seller. As always, you can check out our website if you want more details.

The May 2 tasting will focus on wines for spring and summertime parties and barbeques; details coming soon on the website.See You Downtown
