My Response To Owner Tracey Brandt's ( With Jared Brandt ) Of DONKEY & GOAT Vineyard & Winery's Old Email To Anthony ( TONY ) Quinn - Me : Cheers & Enjoy

Happy Friday everyone, July 26th, 2013 : low humidity and beautiful here now with baby blue skies, small puffy white clouds and a slight breeze, too. Cheers : Go DONKEY & GOAT wines! TONY 7/26/13

We like your DONKEY & GOAT Vineyards & Winery wines : have the 2010 " Five Fifteen ", $35.99, the 2) Carignane 2011 Mendocino unfiltered, $30.99, and the white " Stone Crusher " 2011, $32.99. Happy to have them. A good customer was in the store yesterday and was looking at the dry rose wines of ours. She said that she had seen your other wines on our shelves and wondered if we had the rose? I said that " no " we did not have any now. What's the current story and vintage for it? Maybe we can get some here at Cleveland Park Wines & Spirits Northwest, Washington D.C. in our Cleveland Park neighborhood? Let us know? Cheers, Happy Friday July 26th, 2013 on this low-humidity afternoon here that's hot and with baby-blues kies, puffy white small clouds - really nice. Cheers! When are you coming out to do an owner-winemaker in-store wine-tasting here? Let's talk?!? Take care, Anthony ( TONY ) Quinn

All in all when we started working with the DONKEY & GOAT Winery wines we bought four wines. It was because of their exceptional stories , tastes , styles - ultimate personalities resulting from people that are dedicated, have a vision, a fantasy, a method, a madness, CHARACTER that starts with a dream and a vision and not the other way around. Here's a family, a couple, a small group wanting to do something and to " add " something to the equation of the ocean of wine already " out there " and readily available to the wine-drinking-buying public. Let's educate them, let's give them more choices, let's not try and " dumb them down " and assume that they can and will always only appreciate the safe and narrow middle band of flavors available to them in the whole wide-world spectrum that is " ot there " but systematically being squelched by the larger forces at play. There are exceptions of course, but they are indeed exceptions and we / I at Cleveland Park Wines & Spirits 3423 Connecticut Avenue N.W. Washington D.C., 20008, want to focus on the wealth of experiences, taste sensations, stories, epiphanies, serendipitous moments of pure joy that may be discovered and enjoyed here in these DONKEY & GOAT Vineyard wines. I will have to write more, I am now at home and so will continue this later. Come see us at Cleveland Park Wines & Spirits and talk to Michel Dumas and me ( Anthony Quinn ) about all that you can expect to broaden both your joy and experience and taste sensations with these marvelous DONKEY & GOAT Winery wines. Cheers and have a happy Sunday, July 29th, 2013 today. Come see us at the store tomorrow and get started with these dry reds and whites. You will not be disappointed, rather, you will be amazed and your mouth will open wide in the form of a silent " O " as flavor after taste after texture hits your palate and one or more of your senses till you go into automatic pilot and " enjoy the ride ". Cheers, TONY 7/29/13
