PINK PARTY FUNDRAISER 4/13 SATURDAY

STAND UP FOR REPRODUCTIVE
HEALTHCARE RIGHTS WITH US!
SAT 4/13 from 1 - 7pm

In 2022, following the momentous Supreme Court ruling striking down Roe vs. Wade, we kicked off this event to stand up for reproductive healthcare rights. While we are grateful Oregon has strong protections, other states do not. Both Angie and Jess have roots in Texas so it's a natural fit to help women who do not have the same protections we do.  

50% of all profits from tastings and bottle sales for the day will be donated to Planned Parenthood, America's most trusted provider of sexual and reproductive health care.

The wine lineup will be:

• 2022 Pet Matt Sparkling Rosé

• 2023 Garageland Rosé of Pinot Noir

• 2023 Garageland Rosé of Gamay Noir (on tap)

• 2022 Love & Squalor Skin Contact Pinot Gris "Walks on Gilded Splinters"

In addition to this fabulous wine flight, the final few bottles of the 2022 Love & Squalor Skin Contact Gewürztraminer "A Frayed Knot" will be available for purchase. We're nearly out of stock and gearing up for our next bottling, so snag the final few bottles at our tasting room before they're gone!

Hearth & Soul Pizza truck will be onsite, serving up delicious pizzas so come hungry and enjoy their tasty offerings available for purchase! Check 'em out on insta: @hearthandsoulpizza.

$20/person tasting fee. 50% of all profits from tastings and bottle sales go to Planned Parenthood. Wine Club savings apply!

RIESLINGFEIER MARCH 16th and MARCH SPIN THE BOTTLE

To celebrate our favorite grape, we are throwing a Riesling fest ("Feier" in German).

• When? Saturday, March 16th (1pm to 7pm)

• Where? At our tasting room. Map here.

• Cost? Priceless. Actually, not true. It's $15/person which includes a taste of the lineup of Rieslings and the Radler. Fee is refundable with $50 wine purchase.

• Why? Because you're awesome and Riesling is awesome, so we thought two awesomes make an incredible and that's what you'll experience. Checking my math. Bam. Correct!

This is the 3rd annual Rieslingfeier and we are featuring three of our Rieslings plus our collaboration with Great Notion brewing: Riesling Radler.

The Radler has proven, well, RAD!, over the past two years and Great Notion only make a small amount. Once it's gone, it's gone, so be sure to bring your growlers!

Speaking of growling, how is your tummy? Well, one cannot host a German fest without German food! We will have pairings of hand-made local Bratwurst, kraut and fixings on hand in case you get peckish. All the bratwurst is cooked in the Radler and grilled to order.

Lara, the head brewer at Great Notion, and our very own Jess are entering the Riesling Radler into Shebrew, a nationwide celebration of women in the craft beer and cider industry. Shebrew, which happened, March 10th, in PDX. Come in and ask Jess how it went!

Here’s what we will be pouring:
2022 Pet Matt Sekt Sparkling Dry Riesling
2018 Love & Squalor Dry Riesling Willamette Valley
2017 Love & Squalor Dry Riesling Sunnyside Vineyard
Riesling Radler

We hope to see you at the feier!
