The Annual Winemaker's Dinner


It may be cold outside but we are excited to keep warm in our intimate Barrel Room for our Annual Winemaker's Dinner on February 28th, 2009!  Our limited release and libraried wines are artfully paired with an elegant five course meal courtesy of A Thyme to Cook- one of our beloved and renowned caterers.  It always is a wonderful time and the music, conversation and wine keep flowing.  This is a Case Club member only event.  Not a member?  Your purchase of 12 bottles of any of our wine and no membership fees entitles you to a life time membership (perks include complimentary tastings for you and your friends, invites to complimentary pre-release events and many more discounts).  Contact us to join !

Winter whites, silvers and blues lit up the Barrel Room for our 2008 Winemakers Dinner.  The food from Octagon Restaurant was divine and for the first time we created a movie to share with our guests- A 2007 retrospective from a year in the vineyards and winery.  Wonderful to watch the vineyards grow and toast to the (literal) "fruits of our labor"!

   




Susan Denice on our staff has been wonderful collecting the moments and seasons here at the winery. We will be featuring more of her images- how lucky are we to have a talented photographer and our Rhode Island JE Sales Representative all rolled into one!
