Message in a Bottle - The Carlton Cellars Newsletter, No. 6, Get Set for Crush
 

The amazing wine? Tell them you made it.

Picture yourself next year, pouring a 2008 Roads End or Cape Lookout Oregon Pinot Noir. You offhandedly tell your guests, "Of course, this is my handiwork..." Best of all, you're telling the truth. How? Glad you asked.

Quite simply — it's Crush time again! The grapes are shaping up for harvest and we're calling all Pinot-maniacs: come roll up your sleeves and help us sort the fruit for the '08 vintage. The action happens at the Carlton Cellars Winery here in Carlton, this October.

Find out how to make the leap from Pinot lover to Pinot insider by visiting Carlton Cellars Crush Central, where you can sign up for the Crush bulletin and get into the Crush Crew network. It's fun, it's wine, it's camaraderie, and then of course it's the Crush Crew Thank-You Celebration.

Get It While You Can: Half-Case Connoisseurs Club Program

Our Connoisseurs Club members are invited to an exclusive preview and pre-release purchase of our 2007 wines the Saturday before thanksgiving. There, they'll have the opportunity to purchase our V6-Pack, a limited half-case vertical survey of our vintages going back to 2004, not available anywhere else. Plus they'll have fees waived at the following weekend's Open House, along with a host of other privileges, detailed here.

From now through the end of October we are continuing our half-case membership program. That means you can get a one-year membership in the Carlton Cellars Connoisseurs Club by purchasing just a six-pack of either Roads End or Cape Lookout Oregon Pinot Noir before November, 2008.

Starting November 1, the annual membership requirement increases to a full case purchase. Get in on the half-case deal while you can!
