We have a treat for all of our friends and customers. We will have a private tour and tasting at Blackstock Vineyards near Dahlonega, Georgia. This will include sampling some of their best wines with an assortment of gourmet breads and cheeses. There will be a guided tour of the winery and the vineyards conducted by David Harris, who is the owner and winemaker at Blackstock. We will be there right before harvest and the vines will be fat with grapes! This is a wonderful opportunity, and we hope you can make it!

Mark your calendar now for Sunday September 14, 2008, 2–4 pm.

The cost is $20 per person, which can be paid in person at the store, or you can call the store and we can charge your credit card. Ask for Norm, Tim, or Karl.

One of the wines from Blackstock Winery which you will really enjoy during the warm weather is the 2006 Blackstock Georgia Sangiovese Rose. This wonderful refreshing wine is perfect with ham, chicken or a chilled summer salad. Made with Sangiovese grapes usually made into Chianti, it is a dry style Rose, with good fruit and a clean crisp finish which is not sweet, but off dry. It is also perfect with fruit and cheese before or after the meal.
