Dear <<First Name>>,
Waxwing is open tonight from 6 to 9pm and has special hours Saturday, from noon to 5pm, for the Santa Cruz Mountain Passport Tasting.
We'll be celebrating some great reviews that were published this week. In an effort to be fully transparent, Waxwing will share these reviews, in their entirety, with no redactions. See below.

All three Spring Club Waxwing wines have scored 90 or more points from the national wine press.

2018 Rosé of Pinot Noir from Delfina's Vineyard in the Arroyo Seco AVA
"Moderate pinkish orange color in the glass. Aromas of pink grapefruit, rose flower water, blood orange and strawberry. A dry, French Provence style, featuring flavors of citrus, cranberry, raspberry and botanical notes, finishing with citrus-imbued red berry goodness." -Prince of Pinot Score: 90
2017 Pinot Noir from Deerheart Vineyard in the Santa Cruz Mountains AVA
"Moderately dark garnet color in the glass. Alluring aromas of black cherry, blackberry, spice, clay loam and nutty oak. Tasty middleweight plus flavors of blackberry, black currant, brown spice and black tea create a lasting impression on the fruit-filled finish. A hardy, giving wine that is also nuanced." -Prince of Pinot Score: 92
2017 Pinot Noir from Lester Family Vineyard in the Santa Cruz Mountains AVA
93 points
2017 Cabernet Sauvignon from Star Lane Vineyard in the Happy Canyon of Santa Barbara AVA 93 points
Club shipping for out of town members went out this week and I plan to finish up local deliveries next week. If you can't wait, stop by tonight or tomorrow to try the spring Club Waxwing selections.
Cheers,
Scott Sisemore
