Good Day Everyone,
Was that not a beautiful weekend or what. I'm guessing only a few more left.
The Wine Behren has a great week of tastings scheduled for you. First off, as you all know tomorrow is Farmers Market and First Wednesday. This is the last First Wednesday where Farmers and 1st Wednesday coincide. After this there is only 2 Farmer's Markets left.
David Hill Winery, www.davidhillwinery, will be here at The Wine Behren. Will and Jason will both be here pouring Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, Riesling, Barrel Select Pinot Noir, Estate Reserve Pinot and Reserve Merlot. That is one heck of a line up. Come on down and don't miss the FUN!!!!
Friday night I have Dan from Utopia Vineyards coming up from Carlton to show case his new wines. www.utopiawine.com . Dan has an awesome Pinot Noir along with some big reds from California from his first winery endeavor. Get on down here and try some thing new. The wines are phenomenal. Trust me.
for all of you brave souls out there who signed up for my wine class, don't forget it is from 6-8 Saturday night.
A couple more things, I still have 6 tickets left for the High End Special Tasting for November 15th. This tasting will feature 6 wines, 3 high end Napa Cabs along with 3 very high end Australian Shiraz. Also, tasty treats from Sundial Bakery to pair with the wines. You do not want to miss this one.
A good friend of mine and I decided to host a benefit wine tasting for my good friend Gary Wood's Marine buddy Trent, who was just diagnosed with stage 4 lymphoma. This Stand Up 2 Cancer Fundraiser will be held here at The Wine Behren on Saturday, November 1st. A $50.00 donation per person will include 2 glasses of wine and heavy hord'ouvers.
For more info please contact Gary Woods at 503-330-0391 or garywoodsjr@gmail.com. You can also call or email me here at the shop. 503-359-1967, scott@thewinebehren.com
Ciao for now.

Greetings one and all,
Did everyone enjoy the Chalk Art Festival and The Corn Roast this weekend. I did. I froze my booty off in the dunk tank on Sunday. Actually, it wasn't all that bad. My wetsuit helped.
So, I have some bad news for some of you out there. The bad news is my wine tasting class, Sip Swirl, & Sip is all full. If you wanted to go and did not get a spot don't fret. I will do another one next month.
A quick reminder for those of you who are in. The first class is Saturday, October 4th and it will start at 6pm, here at The Wine Behren.
I do have some good news. I still have 7 spots open for my Private Tasting on November 15th. This is a high end tasting with 3 Napa Cabs and 3 very high end Australian Shiraz. Cost is $50.00 a ticket and that includes wine and food. Give me a call or email if you are interested.
Ok, this Friday my good friend Andy Minor is back at The Wine Behren pouring 6 awesome wines from Basel Cellars from Walla Walla Washington. He will be pouring Sauvignon Blanc $18.00, Merlot $28.00, D'vine Cab $35.00, Syrah $28.00, a Claret for $20.00 and their high end blend "Ode to Merriment" $48.00.
Tasting starts at 5 and is $5.00 per person for all 6 wines.
Thursday's are now officially Thirsty Thursday's. Grendel's and The Wine Behren have teamed up as a corner location to offer Pacific students $2.00 dollar pints & free darts, $4.00 dollar glasses of wine and %10 bottle purchases. Come try us out.
Wow, I do believe that is all I have to say.
Ciao for now, see you all real soon.

This Friday my friend Marc Garner will be here and he will be pouring all Owen Roe Wines. Murphy's Law red and white, Riesling, Abbot's Table, Yakima Red, Walla Walla Cab and the Ex Umbris syrah.
Should be a great tasting as most of the Owen Roe wines have a cult status as of late. Tasting fee is $5.00 and starts at 5 pm Friday night.
Saturday is The Chalk Art Festival so come on down and join the fun. I will be featuring an Ace Cider Tasting that afternoon. Just a little refreshment for all those thirsty artists. I will have 3 ciders at $1.00 per taste.

The October 4th Sip Swirl Sip class is almost full. There are only a couple of spots left so hurry on down if you want to be apart of this fun, crazy class. This is a beginner wine tasting class designed to help you become more familiar with smelling and tasting certain flavor components in the 6 big varietal: Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Merlot, and Cab.
The November 15 Tasting is also almost full. I have 9 spots left. I am only selling 20 tickets so all you winos coming get your fill of vino. If you don't know about this, it is a high end tasting featuring 3 Napa Valley Cabs and 3 high end Aussie Shriaz. Price range for the wines vary from $60.00 to $105.00. The event will be held here, up stairs and will be catered by Sundial Specialty Catering.
