Wind River Cellars

Wind River Cellars

Greetings people! I can' believe how fast this summer is cruising by. I just wanted to give a heads up on a few events coming up. First off, the Columbia Gorge Winegrowers annual summer showcase event thingy is this weekend at the Hood River Inn. The Hood River Inn is located in Hood River. This event will feature most all of the other wineries here in the Gorge. Unfortunately, Wind River Cellars won't be participating but you can always come up and visit us before the event. The following Saturday I will be pouring wine in Yakima at the Case of the Blues festival. Google it or email me for details.

I've enjoyed conducting private group barrel tastings for those of you that have called ahead. I think that those of you that have been through one of my private tastings agree that it's the most fun you can have with clothes on. If you have a fun group, fire me off an email to schedule. (joel@windrivercellars.com) You can see several pictures on the Wind River Cellars Facebook page. If you're not hip on the Facebook just imagine pictures of people having fun. If you are hip on the Facebook but aren't a friend, just ask. We'll be friends with anyone, even Oregonians.

Who here thinks I should start buying glass bottles from my new favorite rep, Kelly? I hope none of you ever get the hardnose, pushy sales pitch that Kelly displayed today. If she was selling heart attacks I would have bought a dozen. I'm a sucker.

We are currently pouring the following wines in the tasting room:
Dry Gewurzt
Pinot Gris
Pinot Noir
Chardonnay
Tempranillo
Cab Franc
Lemberger
Merlot
Syrah
Riesling
White Port
Port of Celilo

If that isn't enough to make you giggle, just ask me or Employee of the Month Runner-up, Ryan for a barrel sample.

You complete me, Husum!

Joel
