I am an outspoken fan of California wines. I founded my tasting group, CLONYC a few years ago on a whim and have had some great themed dinners in that time. Having been a wine lover since 1981, I have surely come full circle on my likes and dislikes.

We have a really exciting line-up tomorrow for our blind tasting. We'll be tasting grilling reds, some great Syrah, Malbec and ZInfandel. There's still a few seats available for the blind tasting 4 flights of 3 wines. As usual no charge. Let me know if you can join us.

"Hi Mike,
Just wanted to let you know we'll have about 20 bottles of wine opened in the Snooth conference room tomorrow.
If you'd like to stop in for a taste or twenty please let me know.
You can come when you like and leave when you must but we'll be hanging out talking wine from about 7 to 9pm.
Hope to see you tomorrow and if you know of someone who might be interested in joining us please don't hesitate to forward this along.
Best Regards
Greg"
