MAY 2012 |

May is a wonderful time of the year in the vineyard. Reports indicate that this year's bud break is several weeks ahead of
last year. So we off to the races. The vines are filling out with new leaves, the Spring flowers are bright and happy, and many new wines are being released.
What could be better!?
Bookings are coming in. Don't miss your date for a memorable Spring tour!

| SOWI WINE SCHOOL |
|
If you haven't made a visit to our local wine school on the campus of the Umpqua Community College, I suggest making plans.
The facility is the most impressive modern example of winery technology in the UV AVA (American Viticultural Area.) We should
be rightfully proud of this institution.
If you are interested in having your group visit the facility I will make arrangements for a tour as part of my wine tour service.
Please Contact Me for more info.

| THE WINE PROFILER |
|
My good wine friend from back in California offers many hard to find wines at great prices. He's been in the wine business
for 40 plus years and knows his stuff.
It is important that wine enthusiasts don't develop too narrow a tasting range. While our local wines are comparable to
many World Class wines, if you don't have a baseline to make these comparisons it becomes academic.
Take a minute or two and fill out Bob's exclusive Wine Profile and see what he has to offer for your particular tastes in wine.
