WHAT'S NEW AT THE WINERY: PIRTLE WINERY NEWSLETTER

April 2003

It's April, and though our vines are still sleeping, the cold won't last much longer. When warmer weather returns, we will have plenty of work to do; honk if you happen to see us working as you pass our I-29 vineyard. We hope to see you soon!

:: NEW WINES ::

The new labels For Seyval, Chambourcin and Premium Port just arrived from the printer and they are truly elegant. Chambourcin is not yet bottled, but the other two are already wearing their new uniforms in the tasting room and looking good.

:: WINE GARDEN KEEPS GROWING ::

We expanded our vine covered wine garden last summer with a deck attached to the Press House; by early spring, we should have a wine bar and various snacks available. We will also be able to have catered wine dinners there. This new arrangement will be much more convenient for wine garden customers.

:: UPCOMING EVENTS IN WESTON ::

Plant sale, gardening sale downtown about April 27th.  We will have rooted, growing grapevines for sale at the winery all during April and May.
