The Wine Company

Dear Wine Lover

Some years ago, I attended a workshop themed ‘carrot, coffee beans and hard-boiled egg’.  The seminar was about classic management theories about how we manage in times of adversity.  What I learnt: Coffee beans are the best examples; at boiling point, they give off the freshest aromas.

I decided to be a ‘coffee bean’, but I find myself getting disappointed and hurt.  I believe I am more like a Bop Bag, as I bounce back in times of adversity with sunny, steady humour.  This Bop Bag is looking forward to Sat 14th Apr, which is the day the guest band ‘Tacet’ plays at The Wine Company tm.  It will tug my heart strings to hear ‘I Look To You’.

Bop bag or coffee beans...just remember, life is always better with a glass of wine...
 
 

Wine Must Try

Mount Arthur Sauvignon Blanc 2010,
New Zealand
$52.00 per bottle
$42.00 for drink-in for holders of ywcc
$34.50 for takeaway for holders of ywcc

Mount Arthur Vineyard is situated on Nelson's Waimea plains on the gravelly soils of 2 river systems.  Bordered by the rugged ranges leading to the Southern alps, the pure beauty of the area is expressed in the grapes and wine drawn from the vineyard.  This Sauvignon Blanc gives this wine a milder and rounder aroma of gooseberry, tropical fruit and cut grass.  In the mouth, the wine is lifted by gentle acidity giving it a refreshing and harmonious taste.
