2013 Viognier Is Coming

My sister Kelly and I were meeting with our dad to discuss the new barrel room, when to bring back wine dinners, what kind of productions tastings to hold, and how to break the news to the club about the limited supply of 2013 Viognier.

For a while we discussed many things - often accompanied by the shattering sound of my crushed hopes and dreams (I had a lot of good ideas that they tossed aside, and Fizzy Football Sundays remain still as only a figment of my imagination, and in desperate need of better name)...

But after two hours debate, finally, I put out an idea, and everyone agreed. I mean, it was probably my idea - I came up with so many good ones, and who can really keep track of who-said-what in those long meetings anyhow, right? 

Here's what we decided:

We picked a weekend to host the grand opening of the new barrel room for our wine club and decided on a wine-club-only, "open house" style of event. We also plotted out some tentative dates for wine dinners and production tastings, discussed music options, and other goodies too (more on those when we've finalized the details)...
