And The Winners Are...

September 28, 2009

The kind people at Shingle Peak wines have made their decision about the five lucky winners of a 6-pack of wine.

For those of you who know me and didn't win, I had nothing to do with the judging! For those of you who know me and did win, I had nothing to do with the judging!

Winners, if the email address you gave me on your post was correct, you'll be hearing from Shingle Peak in the next few days regarding delivery of your wine. If the email address was incorrect, I'm going to drink it myself.

Where was the Pinot Noir when I brought that mallard to my table! Either of the Pinots will suffice to adorn the table with my eclectic range of wild roasts, and bounce around the palates of equally wild guests.

Shingle peak Pinot Gris would be my pick to review. "Spring tastes like nectar, drawn to it like a bee." Well I am, anyway.Cheers, Julie

It is a little known fact that my real name is Nicky Pinotgrino. Truly. And even if it wasn't I'd change it for six free bottles...

A celebratory sauvignon blanc. Not a Shingle Peak should go by without looking up - and giving thanks.

Mmmm - wine to taste - what would we choose?
Shingle Peak Pinot Gris for our reviews!
Lovely and tasty and oh sooo good
We’d devour it daily if only we could.
Six bottles of wine in the fridge – what delight
We’d share it with friends from noon until night.
