October Wine Club Meet Averts Disaster

A Good Time Was Had by All (who received the change in venue!):

Satyrs-wineLabelThe Wine Appreciation Group met at Tracey & Craig Harper’s house this month on October 9th due to a mix-up at Corks Wine Store where it was originally planned to be held. Seems that their manager left them “high and dry” (no pun intended…well, maybe a little one). Anyway, lots of tricks and treats were had by all with Craig making his ghoulish turkey chili and Tracey’s sumptuous corn muffins not to mention numerous other tasty tidbits brought by all who attended, including a bottle of Bent Creek’s finest provided by Gil as a pre-tasting wine.

And the winner is…

The biggest treat of the evening was our third tasting, Satyrs’ Pond Winery, 2005, Meritage. So you may want to pick up a bottle and treat yourself. It’s available at Corks Wine Store (www.corkswinestore.com).

Only 275 cases produced

Suggested Retail: $56.00

Composition: 51% Merlot, 39% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petite Verdot, 4% Cabernet Franc
