SEEKING A HEAVENLY EXPERIENCE ON A MONDAY??

MEMBERS THIS IS YOUR NEXT EVENT!

St. Hallett and Upper Crust Cafe

St Hallett

10909 86 Ave. Edmonton
Monday April 14th 7:00 p.m.
$45.00 each for members
$55.00 each non-members

When a SAINT meets the UPPER CRUST you might think it is an event tailored to the rich and famous. OZ Wine Club knows that UPPER CRUST isn’t about snobbery. It is about yeast and the bread of life!

St. Hallett understands that drinking wine should not be just an experience it should be an almost religious experience. Fine food and good wine can be a divine experience. Have you ever experienced angels dancing on your tongue? This might be your big chance. The Upper Crust Café, St. Hallett Wine and an “Irene Labonte Event”, the perfect trilogy.

We are showcasing wines from St. Hallett a founding winery of the Barossa Valley. St Hallett is dedicated to translating the tapestry of soils and meso-climates of the Barossa in each of its wines. St Hallett is renowned for crafting full-flavored, textured wines entirely from Barossa Valley fruit and is credited with producing benchmark wines of the region such as the iconic St Hallett Old Block Shiraz, made from vines aged up to 100 years old.

Irene LaBonte has organized events in the past and all were well received and a huge success. Irene has outdone herself, reaching for the stars, marrying heavenly wines with celestially foods. Working closely with Julie from Select Wines, Satesh from Crestwood Liquor Store and Sheila from Upper Crust Café they have come up with what promises to be a communion of fabulous fermentation and flavorful food.

Bring a donation for the Food Bank to be entered for a prize draw!

Space is limited to 50 so it will be a first paid first confirmed policy for this event. REGISTRATION DEADLINE APRIL 8

Wonderful Walk About

Sunday, October 7th, 2007

Edmonton Australian Wine Club

2007 was no exception to the rule about the annual Walk-About being a great event. Thank to Lawrence and Roni for a terrific job well done.

High points for me where the egg plant treat with the white wine at DeVine’s, the room at Lazia and the beef at The Creperie.
