2019 fall wine club release


Pairing Applegate Country Club’s famous Pork Ribs with Rosella’s Zinfandel Blackberry BBQ Glaze.


BE SURE TO SAVE THE DATE: September 27 – 29 from 12 – 4 pm

We hope your summer has been a fun and engaging one! Now with Autumn’s leaves rolling in, and more football parties and apple pies, things are getting busier in a different way. We want to help you get a kick-start on these fun fall activities with an AMAZING recipe certain to have your guests impressed! Everyone has a soft spot for sweet n’ spicy… (if they don’t, they soon will. … And you could always keep an extra bottle around for just such occasions – Hey, ever heard of dinner in a bottle? Yeah.. we went there.) SO, if you are a fan of the sticky crunch (that doesn’t leave your fingertips for days,) and otherworldly flair of blackberries mixed with chili and paprika spices… check these images out and keep reading!

Did somebody say: “Well, I’ll be a frozen biscuit on a bean pole, that looks outstanding!”

Prep time is only 20 minutes… one Netflix episode later and you’ve got your mix!

AND there’s always room for a little more ‘ZING’! Add 1/2 a cup of Rosella’s Zinfandel and you’ll be seeing these beauties in your dreams!

‘Fresh Blackberry Glazed Ribs’!

Evening Backyard Parties

There is nothing more satisfying than a backyard party at your own home—complete with friends, good food and amazing ambiance! These kinds of get-togethers are extra special because not only do you get to choose the theme, you get to choose the hour, late evening or midnight perhaps? Food type, maybe you’ll assign dishes to friends, AND you get to have the first pick of the music! If your down one backyard or yours “isn’t quite ready to debut,” not to worry, sometimes TWO can be better than one! Offer to be your friend or family’s expert coordinator…just don’t tell ’em where you’ve stashed ALL the wine!

Consider these party themes…

  • Make your own music and go for the instruments
  • Get out the camping gear and the smores
  • Blend up some fruit slushies..add a wine twist
  • Add some culture and go Bohemian style
  • Put up a sheet and do a movie night
  • Grab the board games and cards
  • Add some elegant lighting and break out the china
  • Make it a glow in the dark party with games
  • Have a book party or do storytelling
  • Have a surprise party for someone special
  • Have everyone bring a different pie
  • Do something “lagoon themed” near the pool

Whatever you decide, don’t forget the wine!

~Cheers
