Oct 12 - Harvest and Gamay Release Party

OCT 12TH HARVEST & GAMAY RELEASE PARTY

Looking for a fun and exciting way to spend your weekend? Look no further than our

Seasonal Harvest (& Gamay Release) Party on Saturday, October 12th from 1pm to 7pm!

Join us for the unveiling of our brand spanking new 2023 Love & Squalor Gamay Noir, along with an assortment of past-vintage library Gamays and other rare wines. The 2022 Gamay Noir got a great reception in the press and we are sure this one will, too. This crowd favorite usually goes to our Wine Club first, so this is a sneaky chance to get in on it early (and before it inevitably sells out)

In addition to the fantastic wine selection, we'll be featuring FOOD FROM MIRELSA our favorite made-to-order taco specialist. She was such a hit at our last event we’ve asked her to keep it coming with her delicious, fresh, and seasonal Mexican fare - perfect with GAMAY. You won't want to miss out on this tasty experience. Plates will be available for purchase.

We're all about keeping it fun around here, so bring along your furry friends for the patio, your kids, and even your bikes! It has been a crazy harvest and we miss seeing your faces, so come join the festivities. You might even be able to jump in on the harvest – we hope to see you there!

Whether you're a pro at knitting up something amazing or just here to crochet some nonsense, this is your night to unwind (or knot up, depending on how your project goes).

We’ll be pouring our delicious Love & Squalor wines to make sure your stitches (and spirits) stay loose.

Bring your yarn, bring your stories, and bring your finest yarn-related frustrations. We’ll handle the vibes and the wine!

In 2019, Leigh started her brand with a taste towards the South African wines she has grown to love from her heritage. She focuses primarily on Washington fruit but makes the wine in Oregon.

PET MATT RELEASE & HOLIDAY OYSTER BASH

SATURDAY DECEMBER 9 - 1PM  to 7PM
(Oysters 3PM to 6PM)

It's the annual release of our new Pet Matt "Sekt" (German for sparkling Riesling). Bottle fermented, dry, and zingy, with teeny tickling bubbles - this wine has been patiently laid down for a whole year waiting to be popped.

Nothing pairs better with oysters, so we invited Denise from @popoysterspdx to shuck the freshest oysters from Hama Hama Oyster Farm.

If oysters aren't your thing, our regular menu will also be available.

Come celebrate this release with us! See you on the 9th!

THREE BOTTLE THURSDAYS

Hello wine lovers!
Want a little skin contact?
You're probably thinking, "How did this email get through my spam filter with such dirty language!"
Well, fear not! We are talking about Gerwürztraminer, the "A Frayed Knot" skin-contact Gewürztraminer to be exact.
You see, it's our featured wine today at the tasting room.

You can swing by, have a sip or a glass, and then take home any three bottles of any of our wines for 10% off. It's the perfect way to have wine on hand for your weekend.
 

10% OFF THREE OR MORE BOTTLES TODAY ONLY IN THE TASTING ROOM.
OPEN 4-8PM.

Our seasonal packs (six or twelve) are the perfect way to celebrate this gorgeous NW summer we're having.

This pack is not your regular, "hey I have Pinot Gris, and Chardonnay, and a so-so Pinot Noir" summer pack...no...this pack is loaded with delicious, unique, and fun wines. These wines are conversation starters and sentence finishers (like, "Wow, that's so...good.").

From the bubbly and vivacious "Pet Matt" to the luscious and jammy "Marty The Behemoth," you will not be disappointed.

Oh, and a little secret. We only have four bottles remaining of the Gamay Noir 2018 that is included in this pack. That means this particular pack will not be around for long!

C'mon indulge a bit and drink the good stuff.
