The Cork Board

  

Welcome to The Cork Board, your site for information on the wines featured at our events (conveniently filed as “Events”) and for general ramblings by me, your humble Wine Education Officer, on interesting wines I've recently tried (filed as "What I am Thinking & Drinking").

As always, if you have any thoughts, questions or suggestions, drop me a line or click on "Leave a Comment", under the specific blog entry, for all to read.  We'd love to hear from you!

Cheers,

John

Wines for Summer Solstice 3

We realize that many of you who wanted to purchase tickets may have been unable to do so given this quick sell-out. In the future for popular events such as this, we may institute a different ticketing protocol in order to address some of the concerns that you all have raised.
