Happy Hour Wine Tasting Featuring Chardonnay form the cellars of Chardonnay Ray

"Now wines are wonders; great wines are magical; and winemakers are mad. Like horse fanciers, they are always trying to improve the breed."  - William E. Massee

We are constantly trying to improve what we do here at the Wine Watch and the new Wine Wine Private Club is the next chapter in our future!  Thank you for your support!! We sold out of the first 100 memberships in just 2 weeks!!  We will not be selling any more memberships until we open the new club in July.  Let us know if you want to be on the waiting list for the next 100 members!! 

Our spring Happy Hours continue Thursday nights with the world’s most popular white wines – chardonnay.   Many of these wines on the table came from the cellar of chardonnay Ray and we now have an incredible collection of vintage chardonnay on the shelves here at Wine Watch.

We will raise a glass and give a special thanks tonight to one of greatest collectors of Chardonnay that we have ever known, a great chardonnay aficionado.  Most of the collection was purchased here during one of the hundreds of supplier tastings that Ray attended with me.

He only bought the best Chardonnay and loved them with 10+ years of age, these wines went right into our storage facility and are now just coming out to reach the shelves here at Wine Watch.   Don’t worry Ray is fine, he and Deb are in Seattle and has plenty of Chardonnay in his cellar there…
