WineRelease.com's February 15, 2007 Monthly Newsletter.
Greetings from WineRelease.com, now 1,187 winery listings strong!
My friend Dave manages K&L Wines in San Francisco and has customers always asking for wine country recommendations.
Because of that, he has been asking me to put together recommendations.
Well, I finally did. Click here to download my first wine country recommendations document "First time Napa Valley Visitor".
I used my Napa Valley survey results from last year and put together a weekend in Napa hitting the major wineries and dining at favorite restaurants.
This month's issue is also a busy one with 113 winery updates (see below).
And now, on to the show...
