News from Wild Goose…..
The growing season last year was superb, and it truly shows in the quality of the 2009 wines. And as a perk of being on our mailing list, all of our 2009 wines are available to you. (note: many of these wines will not be available through regular channels… consider it our way of saying thank you)Our full line up includes: Wild Goose Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Autumn Gold and Pinot Gris, with a limited production Blanc de Noirs and the ever popular Stoney Slope Riesling, along with the God’s Mountain Riesling (limited availability). We also have the Mystic River series, including: Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris and the highly sought after Gewurztraminer. Each of these wines is available to you at the winery and through our website.

Drink it. A few weeks ago we bottled our first Cabernet Sauvignon, grown by winemaker Hagen Kruger. It’s an excellent inaugural vintage, and we’re looking forward to releasing it mid-September. Order now: with only 90 cases available, this one is bound to sell out fast.
Buy it. Get your wine order in early by clicking the order icon on the left or by calling our toll-free order line at 1-877-497-8919. Even better, visit us at the wine shop: we’re open 10-5, seven days a week.
