4th Annual Grand Spring Wine Tasting coming soon

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter.

We are only 2 weeks from our 4th Annual Grand Spring Wine Tasting. The date is Friday May 16th from 4 to 7 PM. We are going to scale it down just a bit but we will still have around 20 different vendors and 100 wines. Of course, we'll have our usual famous tasting pizza and lots of snacks to munch on as well. Be sure to check out the website (corksfinewine.com) as theevent draws closer for more details.

We will not have a wine tasting this week or next as we gear up for the big tasting. But we will have 2 beer tastings for you! Tonight (Thursday from 4:30 to 7:30) our local friends from Buzzard’s Bay will be here to sample you on their excellent brews. Bob will have the Pale Ale, Lager, and the Black Lager for you to try. For those looking for a fun road trip, a visit to Buzzard’s Bay and Westport Rivers is a great little getaway. The scenery, the beers, and the friendly people make this a great time and its right in our neck of the woods.

The 2nd tasting is a bonus 'Cinco de Mayo' beer tasting. It will be on Saturday from 2:30 to 4:30 PM. We will taste the Dos Equis Lager and Amber as well as Sol Beer. These come in a 12 pack called Mexico’s Finest Variety Pack and you will get a free Cinco de Mayo t-shirt for every 12 pk purchase. We also have plenty of Corona’s and limes for all your Cinco celebrations.

OK time for my weekly sports roundup. The Sox finished the month strong considering the Japan trip and all the travel. Don’t forget the Redsox wines from Longball Vineyards will be in by mid May and we will have a big Redsox tasting when they arrive. The Celtics looked good last night and can hopefully put the pesky Hawks away this weekend. And for those diehard Boston Militia fans, unfortunately they were spanked in Pittsburghand will look to rebound on the road againstthe Vipers this week.

Have a great week!
Robert
