Jakot, Gialla, Sangiovese,

Il Frappato, Ronco Malo,
Vigne Rionda, and Chinato,

VdT and Montemarino,

A bit too light, a bit sauvage,
Eric, what is the cepage?
Swish and spit and gab and chat,
David this and Jamie that,

Try them all at your own pace,
10% off every case.

Look, Ma, no adjectives (nearly).
 
As someone who stopped by CSW during the tasting (figuring it was a good time as everyone would be elsewhere) let me tell you - bad idea.

Not only were they short staffed (duh!) but lots of people who left the tasting were heading over there to buy the wines they just tasted. Long lines.

But I persevered and got some more Pinon. I'd count that as a success any day.

Nyah nyah! Cheaters never prosper.

I went home and used the Entr'tewbs.

We learn from our mistakes. To show good faith, anyone who attended last Saturday's free tasting who found the event alienating is entitled to a full refund. Contact me at my personal e-mail: captaintumorman@gmail.com

Are those of us who weren't at the event entitled to a refund too? It only seems fair.
