Are you ready for T-giving weekend?
He’s ba-a-ck. The return trip was uneventful. Long, but uneventful. There’s nothing better in the world than having Pirrie leap into my arms as I trudge off the plane at PDX. I’m pretty much back on Portland time, but my body seems to still be a little confused around one or two in the afternoon - that’s 10 or 11pm in France, and crawling into bed feels like a very good idea for some reason!
It was great to see everyone at our pre-Thanksgiving weekend event at the winery - we poured a bunch of great Champagne and several offerings from Chambolle-Musigny. I was blown away by the size of the crowds over the weekend. The weekend before t-giving has become almost as much of a tradition here in Oregon wine country as the holiday weekend itself.
Please plan to join us this weekend - it’s the only weekend of the year that we pour all three of the Scott Paul Pinots, along with a nice selection of white and red burgs that are nice choices for holiday giving and entertaining. The sales of our 2007 Audrey Futures has been robust since we first announced the offer a couple of weeks ago - if you’re interested please get your order in as soon as you can - it is likely we’ll be sold out by the end of the t-giving weekend.
Also this weekend - we’re excited to host author John Haeger in our tasting room all day Saturday - he’ll be signing copies of his new book “Pacific Pinot”, which is yours free this weekend (while they last) with a purchase of a 6-pack of 07 Audrey futures, a 6-pack of 06 La Paulée. or any mixed 12-bottle case. (Or you can buy it straight out for $25, but then you’d have no wine to drink while reading it!)
I was also amazed last weekend at how many of you are reading the blog - it seemed like every other person that popped in over the weekend mentioned something from a recent post. Thanks so much for following my adventures and ramblings here. I really enjoy doing it, but even more so knowing that it’s actually being seen!
Looking forward to seeing you here this weekend (10-4 Friday & Saturday, 11-4 on Sunday.) And don’t forget to pick up the book -
Get yours signed Saturday at Scott Paul!
