Black Pearl Rosé 2011 vintage, NOW ON SALE!!!!

MEG - OUR LITTLE PEARL NEEDS YOU HELP.
Meg is 4 years old and has spastic Quadreplegic Cerebal Palsy.
We are launching the second release of Meg's rosé wine called Black Pearl.
The idea for this fundraising effort came from winemaker & family friend Eleana Anderson of Mayford Wines (www.mayfordwines.com) who has lovingly donated her time and resources.
This wine is made from donated grapes grown in the Alpine Valleys by Mayford & Michelini wines, (www.micheliniwines.com.au) and bottled with assistance from Ringer Reef Wines (www.ringerreef.com.au) and picked, bottled, labeled and packed by volunteers.
A big, huge thank you to all those who gave their time and assistance.
The rosé was certainly made with love, you can taste it in every bottle!
The funds raised from the sale of this wine will be used for Megs future needs,
including this year the purchase of her first wheelchair.
For sale at Alpine Visitor Centres, in Bright, Mt Beauty & Myrtleford, & Food, Wine, Friends in Bright or print the order form below and we will deliver! Please help us to help Meg. For wine enquiries please email Kate - casleyke@bigpond.com. Enjoy!

You can help, enjoy your wine and not spend any additional money or time doing it.



Have a think about just what you spend each week purchasing wine.

A bottle here, a bottle there, pick one up when you are heading out for dinner, grab bottle of something to give as an easy birthday, Christmas, housewarming gift. Generally they cost between $10 - $20, how many a week would you buy? If I was being honest I would have to say at least 3, what about you?

Now if you would indulge me, have a think about where your $30 - $50 goes each week. A fair percentage goes to the supermarket / liquor store, the rest to the winemaker / grape grower, perhaps some to the transport company. A large majority of the wine sold at supermarkets is owned by hugeconglomerates and unless you only buy local wines your money leaves the region, often the country. Did you know that? Perhaps it didn’t even enter your realm of consciousness. Fair enough too, we all deserve a glass of something after a hard days / weeks work!

But what if our money could be used to help someone, we still get our bottle of wine; we still get to enjoy it with a girlfriend, over dinner or relaxing by the river.

Black Pearl rosé was made locally, using local grapes for a local girl called Meg Casley who has severe Cerebral Palsy. The award winning local wine maker gave her time to make the wine to help Meg, the Local grape growers gave their produce to help Meg, and the Local volunteers who pickedgrapes, bottled, labelled and boxed the wine gave their time to help Meg.

Could you help Meg by purchasing a box of 6 bottles? @ $15 a bottle you wont need to pop in at the bottle shop for 2 – 3 weeks, it’s money you would have spent anyway!

We offer free delivery in the Alpine region, Albury / Wodonga and Melbourne.

Please call or email me your order. casleyke@bigpond.com 0357501484.
