I wanted to get something this morning for all of you grown ups out there who will be looking on with envy (as I will be) when your kids are running door-to-door with their friends trick-or-treating on Monday night. That was such a fun and carefree time of your life…Ahhhh memories.
Sorry…digressing too much this morning.
Last night, as my kids starting strategizing on what path they would take for “maximum candy collection” and setting up of their costumes I began to think about what would be a good “Treat” the McMurray’s could give out for all those parents trudging through the dark of night following their children bounding from yard to yard.
I got it…FINN SINGLZ!!!
Then, the next thought I had was how do we take a treat like this beyond the McMurray’s and beyond Halloween.
How about running a HALLOWEEN PENNY SALE!
FINN SINGLZ were introduced to us this year at Citifield by The New York Mets. This is a great way to have an all-in-one wine serving at your fingertips. I thought these were so great that we brought cases of them home to our house this Summer and used them for GIFTS, PICNICS, PARTY FAVORS and the simple go-to glass of wine on a Tuesday night.
Realizing that Summer is over we thought we would go a little crazy with this sale.
The two wines being offered are:
Finnegan’s Lake SINGLZ Chardonnay 2010 (90SWJ) (187ml) {#344709} | Reg Btl $5.99
“Radiant white gold. The floral bouquet is accented with exotic fruit aromas of kiwis and lychees, along with a hint of apple and chalk. Brimming with racy acidity, this fully dry Chardonnay exhibits delicious, tart lemon-lime fruit flavors with razor sharp precision. This is not an oaky Chard monster; it is more like liquid sweet tarts for adults, only better. Medium-bodied, refreshing, and an exceptional value. In fact, in a recent blind tasting, the 2010 Finnegan’s Lake Chardonnay easily bested Chardonnays from a number of California high-end, “cult wine” producers who charge two to three times as much for their overripe, oak-driven wines…90.” Sonoma Wine Journal 4/11.
Finnegan’s Lake SINGLZ Cabernet Sauvignon 2009 (187ml)
{#344707} | Reg Btl $5.99
“Dark ruby. Aromas of blackberries, black cherries, and violets are infused with a hint of dark chocolate and pepper. Upon the first sip, the ample tannins in the mouth lead to a rich, nearly full-bodied wine. Juicy flavors of black fruits are complemented by a classic California Cab note of bell peppers. This is a perfect match for barbecue (especially pulled pork), burgers, and hot dogs with all the trimmings. As tasty as this young Cabernet is right now, I think it will be even better with time; I would not be surprised to see this wine develop over the next year and merit a 90-point rating…” Sonoma Wine Journal 4/11.
And here’s my TRICK-OR-TREAT Deal:
Buy any 6 of the FINN SINGLZ above at the REGULAR BOTTLE PRICE and you can get the next 6 for only A PENNY PER BOTTLE…That nets you out to a mere $3/Bottle!!!
This is such a unique sale that we ask that all orders be e-mailed into the store (cs@zachys.com) or mention receipt of this offer if calling in. Offer good while supplies last.
Thinking ahead for stocking stuffers or possibly need some party favors…This is it.
I hope everybody has a fun and SAFE Halloween on Monday.
All my best,
Andrew
