Ciao amici (hello friends) of Texas Legato,
We enjoyed a great month in September at the numerous events we participated in. October looks to be just as exciting. A list of events with links is located below. Please come to the ones in your neighborhood.
The month of October is the Texas Hill Country Wine Month. Each participating Hill Country winery will be offering discounts on purchases of 3 or more bottles and at least 1 free tasting. To purchase tickets go to: http://www.texaswinetrail.com.
Our newest releases, GCP Mirtillo, Sweet Surrender and Malbec, are getting great reviews. 2011 GCP Mirtillo and 2009 Malbec just received Silver Medals from the “Wines of the South Competition” in Knoxville, TN.
We plan to bottle our remaining Sweet Surrender on Saturday, Oct 15th, and our 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon and 2009 Merlot as soon as possible. Most of our wines will be available in the Tyler area next month at both Shogun locations and K-Bob’s Steakhouse in Fredericksburg will begin carrying our Family Reunion. Look for an announcement regarding the GCP Mirtillo in the Tyler area soon.
Our new website is up and running, http://www.texaslegato.com. I hope you will peruse and find it easy to navigate. Please note there are additional pages/links at the bottom of the home page. Please share our information with your “wine-o” friends. If they are interested in receiving our newsletters, they can be added by subscribing at the bottom of the home page.
We had a great time on the 4th & 6th at the 125 Anniversary of the State Fair of Texas, Wine Garden. Followed by a Saturday of fun on the 8th at Bryan Texas Steak and Reds.
