Dear Lords and Ladies-
With the impending wedding of Prince William to Kate Middleton taking place this coming Friday, if you, like me have yet to receive your official invitation, I think it is time to stop holding our breath. My heartbreak knows exact bounds (it goes from my left ventricle to 1.2 millimeters towards the right). In reality, it is probably better that we are not attending the wedding on Friday so that we can be well rested for Whitestone’s BIG BARREL TASTING in Wilbur on Saturday, April 30th from 11 am to 5 pm. Comparing the two events, there is no question which event has the wow factor! I mean, would you rather spend the day at Buckingham Palace or in Wilbur?! My vote? Bucki...errr WILBUR! Brats and Burgers from Egger’s Meats or crumpets and tea? Um, make mine a double with extra pickles! Learn how Whitestone makes award winning wine or stare at Prince Charles’s ears? Tough one, but I will go with the winemaking. And finally, taste through a three-year vertical of Merlot in the barrel, comparing 2010, 2009, and 2008 French and American Oak and the effect aging has on the wine or try and make a guy in a red jacket with a funny hat crack a smile? To answer, please pass the wine thief and a glass.
Our Spring Big Barrel Event will be in Wilbur this Saturday, April 30th from 11 am to 5 pm. We will be serving bratwurst and burgers. We will be having educational tastings on how wine ages in the barrel and all of our current releases open for tasting. This event is free for wine club members, $10 at the door for non-club members.
Wilbur, Washington is located 60 miles west of Spokane on Highway 2. Our production facility is located in the middle of town, at 111 E. Main Street (Highway 2). Please email info@whitestonewinery.com or call 509-838-2427 if you have any questions.
This Friday, April 29th, from 6 to 9 pm we will be hosting live music at our Spokane Tasting Room (111 S. Cedar Street). Come on down and pick up your official Whitestone Running gear for Bloomsday!
