HOW TO PROPERLY CLEAN YOUR WINE BOTTLES FOR REFILLING

Your bottles must already be clean upon your arrival at the event. We will not be able to put wine into a dirty or moldy bottle. We reserve the right to refuse to fill any bottle we deem unacceptable from a cleanliness standpoint.

Here are some hints for preparing your bottles for refilling:

Fill your sink or other large basin with hot water and about half a box of baking soda per sink of water. Let the bottles soak in this strong alkaline solution until any wine stains are gone and the labels slide off. It is crucial to rinse the inside several times with clean hot water, drain, and store in a wine carton neck down. This will prevent mold from forming in any leftover liquid in the bottom of the bottle.

If you have just finished a bottle, it is much easier to clean it right then! Rinse the inside several times with hot water, drain, then store as described above. Normally this will be sufficient cleaning and the bottles will be ready for filling next time.

Putting your bottles in the dishwasher does not clean the inside of the bottle, and may leave a soap residue that could taint the wine!

Cork Equity Day #29
Saturday • August 7th, 2010• 10am - 3pm

BOTTLE YOUR OWN RED WINE

CORK EQUITY:
A method of saving big money and having lots of fun by getting hands-on involvement assisting in the bottling, corking, and labeling of your own premium wine. Like sweat equity - but with no sweat.

Early in our history as a winemaking family, some customers would drop by the winery with their empty jugs. Our Grandparents, Emilio and Emilia Guglielmo, would entertain them with stories, wine, and often Italian songs played on an accordion, while filling their jugs. We invite you to relive this part of our past for this special "Bottle-Your-Own" event circa 2009.

Over 6,000 wine lovers have turned up at the cellar door on our Cork Equity Days looking for a great bottle of wine at a great price. Few have been disappointed! Don’t miss your chance to meet friends, have some fun, hear some great Italian music, enjoy complimentary bread & cheese —and get some very tasty wine in the bargain! Plus!! Live Italian accordion music!!

Cork Equity Blend #28
Our Cork Equity #28 was comprised of 2005, 2006 & 2007 Merlot from Santa Clara and San Luis Obispo (51%), 2003 Santa Clara Valley Sangiovese (21%) and 2007 Santa Clara Valley Petite Sirah (12%). Rounding out the blend is mixed reds (16%) including Zinfandel, Pinot Noir, Charbono, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah, all from Guglielmo Private Reserve stock.

We feel our Cork Equity #28 displays richness and finesse not usually associated with wines of this price.

EARN SOME SUSTENANCE!
Each person who purchases and bottles at least one case of "Cork Equity wine" will be rewarded with one complimentary "Unlimited Access Pass" to our Chef’s Table - featuring fresh-grilled Italian Sausage and other delectable goodies. After all, you’ve earned it!

Additional Chef’s Table passes are $5 each.

For the Cork Equity event, we have resurrected our Cavalcade label - first used by our grandfather and father to denote selected barrels of wines that had received additional aging and were considered a cut above the regular bottling of Emile’s Private Stock wines. Called Cavalcade Cellar Red, this special wine will only be available at the event.
