Wine Train 2007: Time to Get On Board!

When the summer sun beats down on the vines, it is time to think about making some wine. The Redwood Shores Wine Club Express is leavin' the station, and we are now accepting new members into its fraternal order of winemakers.

Presently we are bottling our 2006 Russian River Syrah. We make our wine [and have our winemaking socials] at the Bacchus Winemaking Club, 1697 Industrial Road in San Carlos.

If anyone is interested in the winemaking [and quaffing] process and would like to investigate getting in on the action, contact Dennis Murphy [murphy.dennis@gmail.com] or Annette Vernon [vernhardt@comcast.net]. It is a lot of fun, not very hard, and very rewarding.

An investment of $167 [a bit under $14 a bottle] will yield a case of fine professionally-made vino. With our small batch production, you get to oversee from harvest grape to bottle over the course of four fun yearly events. So act now and, as a special bonus, get in on this month's fun-filled bottling session on Friday, July 27th.
