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!

Wet weather grape picking

Just wanted to thank all those who turned out today to pick grapes at Ringer Reef Winery - about 15 people braved the wild thunderstorm and we managed to pick about 140 buckets before calling it a wet weather day!
It was lovely chatting amongst the vines and the beautiful merlot grapes donated by Ringer Reef were in abundance.
Eleana Anderson from Mayford wines next door was cranking up the grape crush to get the wine started as we left, she already has last weeks pick fermenting! It's all very exciting - we expect the wine to be bottled in September and available for purchase in November 2010. If you would like to pre order Meg's Black Pearl rose please email me casleyke@bigpond.com - the wine will sell for $15 per bottle or $170 per dozen.
Another picking morning has been called to pick the last 70 or so buckets required on wednrsday 3rd march 2010 at 9am at Ringer Reef Winery Porepunkah any available volunteers would be welcome.

Keep an eye out for the local paper this week!

Thanks again fellow pickers.

Kate
