Got My Wine Shipment for TXwine Twitter Tuesday – March 12, 2013

Got My Wine Shipment for TXwine Twitter Tuesday – March 12, 2013

Just in case you haven’t heard, this month’s TXwine Twitter Tuesday (a regularly scheduled Tweet/Taste-up of Texas wine aficionados) is happening Tuesday, March 12th from 7-8 pm Central Time. The March issue of Imbibe magazine is devoted to Texas wine, food and spirits and our own Jessica Dupuy (@JDewps) has written an article about Texas wine. This is great exposure for the Texas wine industry in a national magazine!

So, to celebrate, TXwine Twitter Tuesday organizers Jeff Cope (@TXwinelover) and Denise Fraser (@DeniseFraserTX) have asked Jessica to lead the March Twitter Tasting and are featuring three of Jessica’s favorite Texas wines:

• Duchman Family Winery Aglianico
• McPherson Cellars Dry Chenin (which Jessica helped make; in lieu of the McPherson Les Copains, featured in the article but which is sold out)
• Pedernales Cellars Texas Tempranillo

To make it really interesting this month, they have changed things up and rather than having to go out and find the Texas wines from wine shops for the tasting, this month’s wines can be shipped directly to your front door or designated drop ship location (with adult signature).  I just received my shipment (see photo above). If I can wait long enough to not open the wines until next Tuesday’s Twitter tasting, I will be set to go.

If you want to get your wines shipped to you, the wineries are graciously offering all three wines for $36 plus shipping.  Go to www.pedernalescellars.com and click on Buy and then Online Store and look for the special TXWine Twitter Tuesday 3 Bottle Set. That’s what I did. If I can navigate it successfully with my rapidly depleting set of neurons, so can you. However, you have to act fast like tomorrow (Thursday) at the latest.

I look forward to tasting and tweeting with you next Tuesday night. Even if you miss the event, these three wines at $36 plus shipping are a steal.

Hopefully, this will be the first of many more TXwine Twitter Tuesdays (with a little more notice too) where we can get the wines shipped directly to us.  I’d particularly like to have a TXwine Twitter Tuesday with wines from the piney woods of east Texas. I just don’t seem to get their often enough and can’t generally find their wines locally.
