January 2010 Newsletter
Here is the NEWS!
1. This year we are offering a range of previous vintages of RGS wines, largely as a result of the changing climate, the drought and race to the bottom of the wine barrel by Woolies and Coles.
2. The Shiraz, Cabernet and Malbec are from various years between 2004 and 2007. Most will be labeled however if there are more bottles sold than labels printed, there may be a few ‘undressed’ bottles in your order. There is a small quantity of the very good 2008 Verdelho available.
3. All are in limited supplies however we are confident that most of you will get the wine you order.
4. If you’d like to pick up your wine, it will be available in the number 4 bond at Bleasdale Winery at Langhorne Creek from 3 – 5 pm on Sunday February 28th 2010.
5. The web site address is http://www.rgswineclub.com
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 24 years ago who wanted to get access to a quantity of good SA reds 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 web site. 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 2010 RGS Wine Club offering is a great collection of aged and really good Langhorne Creek wines, most of which you have already enjoyed.
Best regards
