To help celebrate Earthday I think I’ll recycle the old mystery discount this week but take the mystery out of it. Just mention you saw the newsletter…wear an outfit made entirely out of hemp...or just wish the cashier a happy Earthday and receive 10% off any organic wine or beer (including the brand new Southern Tier 422) we have in the store. And if you buy 6-wines (they don’t have to be organic) and ask the cashier, we’ll give you a 6 bottle, earth friendly, green cloth bag for free!! We also have a very limited supply of the really cool black, 4 bottle Earth 2.0 bags left over from Erin’s tasting on Saturday. If you buy at least 2 of the delicious Earth 2.0 wines you can score 1 of them as well.
Our buddy Jacob Pacific (sounds like a made up pornstar name to me) from Sam Adams will be here on Thursday from 4:30 to 7:30 to taste the new Imperial Series beers from Sam. He will have the Imperial White, Imperial Stout, and the Double Bock all in 4 pks for you to sample. I think he said he would do the fairly new Blackberry Witbier also. He promises us he will hang our gigantic Sam Adams montage in the front vestibule area after the tasting too!! One other beer note, we have a limited supply of the Guinness 250 Anniversary Stout. Limit (2) 6-pks per customer, while they last.
We don’t have a wine tasting scheduled this Friday (where are all those people who said they wanted to do a “Customer Wine Tasting” ?!?). I will be off next week on my sorta annual trip to Ft. Myers Beach and off to see the Sox in Tampa Bay, so there won’t be a wine tasting next week either. But we have 7 of the next 8 weeks already booked, so be sure to check the website out (corksfinewine.com) for the lineup.
There won’t be a newsletter next week ( but have no fear, I’ll probably tweet...blog…dig…blurb...burp…or throw updates on the website) so I want to mention that Saranac will be here next Thursday, April 30th from 4:30 to 7:30 for a beer tasting. I’m not sure what the lineup is going to be yet, but we haven’t done them in a long time and they always have good stuff. Let’s hope the Sox keep up their winning ways…The B’s polish off the Canadiens...and the Celts can overtake the upstart Bulls, and keep their playoff run going. Looks like the warm weather will finally be making an appearance…enjoy it, and I’ll catch you all in a couple weeks.

Happy Easter from all of us at Cork's Fine Wine
Welcome to Cork’s Easter newsletter. I would like to thank all of you who attended our 5th Annual Grand Spring Wine tasting last week. Although the turnout was a little lighter than normal, I thought it was very successful. Quite a few of you commented on how it was more manageable, and easier to talk with the reps. Unbeknownst to us we ran into Yankee Spirits spring tasting which kept the numbers here down a bit…heck we even had 2 extra pizzas!!! We are open to your comments and suggestions on how we can make the next tasting even better.
We will not have an official wine tasting this Friday night as its Good Friday and we’ll be kind of busy. But our friend John from Trio Wines said he’d stop by and sample you on a few of his wines, if you happen to be in the neighborhood. Next Saturday (April 18th) from 2-5 PM we will have Erin from J. Polep here with some organic wines, and earth friendly wine bags to help celebrate Earth Day.
I’d like to wish all our Jewish friends a happy Passover season. We have a rack in the front of the store with a few kosher wines and beers for your convenience. We will also have Melissa from Schmaltz Brewing Co. here to sample you on their crazy Coney Island Beers this Thursday from 4:30 to 7:30 PM. She will have the Coney Island Lager, Albino Python, Sword Swallower, and Human Blockhead, all in 22 oz. bottles for you to sample. As with all our Thursday night beer tastings you will receive a 10% discount on any beers we sample that evening.
We will be open until 10 PM this Friday & Saturday and every Fri/Sat night right through the Summer months. We will be closed Easter Sunday so we may enjoy the holiday with our families. I do have some bad news we need to pass along. Cork’s mascot has passed away…no not Ted the wine dog...but Floyd the fish. He had a short, yet uneventful 4 day life here at Cork’s. His smile and infectious personality will be sorely missed.
Our next big even will be our 3rd Annual Customer Appreciation Day, which will be sometime in late July or early August. Be sure to check the website (corksfinewine.com). myspace, twitter, facebook, dig, and any other crazy social network that we’re on for details and updates on all events happening here at Cork’s. I hope you all have a great Easter and we’ll see you soon.
