March 21, 2002 ---------Chateau Ste Michelle's EROICA is in!

Dear %%NAME%%

After soooo many requests, we finally have the new Chateau Ste Michelle EROICA Riesling 2001 in stock! It always goes in a few weeks, so don't delay if this is your drink of choice! And we are still offering a 10% discount off the sale price on a full case when you use 3 day air to ship. And remember, Oregon has NO SALES TAX, so when you are comparing prices, remember to take that into account!

The first time I saw Eroica, a new Riesling made by Chateau Ste. Michelle, I thought the label read, "Erotica."
"I’ll take two of those," I said to the clerk, grinning from ear to ear, oblivious to my dyslexia.

Chateau Ste Michelle Eroica 2001
$20.99 INTRO SALE
Will be $22.99 April 1st
This wine is a collaborative effort of Chateau Ste Michelle in Washington State andErnst Loosen's winery in Germany. Last year's vintage received 91 points from Wine Spectator, and
the 99 vintage was one of the
top 100 wines of the year from Wine Spectator!

This wine offers opulent, lush pear and apple aromas and is full bodied, with plush tangerine, sweet tea, honey, and mineral flavors. I think this vintage is the best so far. JY

Very very limited
We are so honored to be able to offer the very limited wines of Marc Peters and Marty Weber.

Excellent value
Table Rock wines are high quality, great value declassified bottlings of Griffin Creek Vineyards wines. Made by Joe Dobbes, this is a very well made wine and is full of rich flavors.

Eroica Riesling Label


Woodward Canyon
Old Vine
Cab Sauvignon 99

$60.00 through March
$65.00
April and on
This 1999 "old vines" cabernet sauvignon is a powerful and worthy successor to 1995, 1997 and 1998 "old vines". Flavors of ripe raspberry and blackberry married with spicy, toasted oak and vanilla explode in the mouth! The color is deeply purple and the texture is concentrated and rich, yet supple. It will benefit greatly from additional cellaring, and with proper storage, should last fifteen years.
