In this edition, I want to invite everybody to the many wine events that will be coming up this year. We have tried to spread the events out and we have many newcomers to the Club. We have also tried to build a diversity of events so that each will be fresh and enjoyable to attend. We will have wines from Howell Mountain, Napa, Alexander Valley, Paso Robles and possibly a collection from Italy. A few of the wine dinners will consist of wineries that we will be visiting on the upcoming Napa trip in July. These have been notated with an asterisk.

I would now like switch gears to St. Patrick’s Day and leave you with a couple of cocktails to master at home or enjoy at the Club. The first is a great dessert; the second is superbly simplistic.
Enjoy!
See you at the Club…
