Hi Vine/Vino Folks,
Your wine submissions for the 1st AVA Celebration Wine Rating event are due by end of today. If you are dropping your wine off tonight, Bill Scanlin will be dressed in his chef’s apron and will be handing out freshly baked cookies. (okay, the part about the cookies is fake news, and we are not really sure what Bill will be wearing)
We have a good group of judges on board, including Lamorinda’s poet laureate/wine writer and the wine buyer for Diablo foods. Plus, we have members as judges as well, just so we all can agree to disagree with whatever they say.
So, if you have been playing classical music (or Milli Vanilli) to your bottles of wine, getting them fully prepped for the event, today is the day to get them to Bill, dressed in his apron and all. (6 Lois Lane, Lafayette)
And if you still need tickets, or more tickets for friends or family, or fans of Milli Vanilli
