Dear Friends,
Gold is good!
Here is a brief note to y’all
about this weekend and how we are doing:
Harvest Saturday:
If you are coming out to pick some grapes on Saturday, please be ready
for the weather. It is going to be sunny and warm so be prepared.
Also, please bring clippers if you have them. I have some but not
enough for all if there are lots of people. We will be crushing the
fruit as well as harvesting, so it should be a great opportunity for
fun and learning.
Awards: The Virginia
Governor’s Cup winners were just announced and the 2006 Chambourcin
won a gold Medal!! Also the Cabernet Franc took a Silver, and Bronze
medals went to both the Raspberry Merlot and the Tre Sorelle. This
is our first gold medal of hopefully many more to come. Thanks again
to the blending team who can put together some nice wines.
Website: We are still
having some issues with Fabbioli.com, use fabbioliwines.com to access
our website. I am hoping for resolution soon but there is no certainty.
Festival: The festival
at Morven Park was very good for us but needs some work with the logistics
through the organizers. I will be involved in helping these folks
improve it so any thoughts you can pass to me as customers, I will
be sure to forward.
More info coming soon but just wanted
to say thanks, looking forward to seeing you soon, and here’s
to the harvest!
