January 2009 Newsletter
From Ian & Ann
Here is the NEWS!
1. The annual knees-up distribution day will be in the usual location, the number 4 bond at Bleasdale Winery at Langhorne Creek from 2 – 5 pm on Sunday February 15th 2009. Suggest you put it in your diary right now!
2. The new web site address is http://www.rgswineclub.com
3. The 2008 RGS Verdelho is bottled, labeled and ready to go. Contact Ann to get the wine sent to you before summer really sets in.
Re the annual knees-up - you are cordially invited to enjoy the company of fellow RGS Wine Club members and friends, taste the new RGS wines and past vintages, enjoy the music and sample John’s great ham & Henry’s remarkable Coorong mullet.
The cost is $20.00 a head. Don’t forget to bring a chair – and a dedicated driver.
The RGS red wines are barrel selected and then made specifically to RGS Wine Club specs. The RGS Wine Club was driven largely by a core group of 30 or so from around the country 23 years ago who wanted to get access to a quantity of good SA reds (and now whites) at a great price.
Ann’s Calliope Vintry administers the RGS Wine Club. Her email address is ascutchings@bigpond.com and contact phone / fax number at Langhorne Creek is 08 8537 3113.
Have a wander around the new web site. Thank you Sue from Biz Boost at Tailem Bend for getting it up. There are tasting notes, the RGS Order Form, details of the RGS ‘On Location’ Photo Competition and a picture gallery of past RGS Wine Club functions.
The 2008 RGS Wine Club offering is a great collection of really good Langhorne Creek wines, which we know you’ll enjoy. See you on February 15th at Bleasdale.
Best regards
Ian Doyle
Founder RGS Wine Club
