Ciao cyclists!


This is Susan from Raffaldini Vineyards. We'lll be pouring our Italian wines for you at a wine tasting at the Wilkesboro campsite from 7-9 Sunday night and hosting your first rest stop Monday morning at our vineyard and tasting room. Check out www.raffaldini.com for info on our beautiful site, overlooking the Blue Ridge.


Special "Cycle NC" logo stickers for your wine bottles are in the works!


We can ship your wine purchases to you, at a discounted shipping rate.


Sunday night, the wine tasting is on us and you can also purchase a wine by the glass and bottle and get an idea of what you will experience on Monday.


At the tasting room we pour 8 Italian wines. Our white wines: the well-known Pinot Grigio (the new Gucci of grapes in popularity), Fiori (floral white blend) and Vermentino, a dry white seafood wine, native to Sardinia. We just took a Gold Medal at the San Diego International for this one!


We also have Sangiovese (think Chianti) and other red blends, plus two Roses - dry and  semi-sweet.


Our prices are affordable: $10-14.


A presto!

Susan,
Thanks for such a nice offering. I'm looking forward to the wine tasting on Sunday and to visiting your vineyard Monday morning. The vineyard looks beautiful on the web site. Italian red always makes me smile.

Susan,


Wonderful.   We love vino.


I will make sure I wear my Italian jersey on Monday's ride.


1) Would it be possible to order wine Monday and have it delivered to Elk Banner for pick up when we return on the buses on Sunday Oct 8?


 


2) Would it be possible to purchase wine and have it delivered to the Monday evening campground?

Since I am relatively-local, and I've tried the fruit of the vine here,  I feel that I must add something:  that is some goooooooood vino.

Hi there!  We can ship your wine to Banner Elk if you have a shipping address there. Otherwise, we will ship the wine to your home. Where do you live?
