Australian Wine Trade Bushfire Raffle and we welcome back Friday Night Tastings

19 February 2009
The events of the past week have touched all Australians and hit home hard for the wine industry with the tragic death of Rob Davey (of Rob Davey Wine Merchants) his wife and two young daughters. A number of wineries in Victoria have also suffered significant property and stock losses. The Australian Wine Trade responds with generous donations from wineries big and small, including many affected as well as a number of key online retailers that have supported the cause. All that remains is for people to buy tickets and spread the word. I appreciate many of you have already given to the cause, but if you can find it in your heart to give a little more, and maybe even win some great wines, please do.

- Tickets are $25 each

- Proceeds to go to the Australian Red Cross - Victorian Bushfire Appeal 2009.
- Raffle runs Tuesday Feb 17th - Wednesday March 11th
- Raffle to be drawn Friday, March 13th. Details TBA

Please ring East End Cellars on 08 8232 5300, or send us an e-mail at wine@eastendcellars.com.au to purchase your tickets.

For further details and the raffle prizes please read it on the EEC Website.

We have been keeping pretty low key on Friday nights as far as tastings are concerned so far for 2009, but not any more as we kick off this Friday the 20th looking at the brilliant Tapanappa Range. The tasting will be on from 5 till 7pm and Saturday afternoon...if there is any left :)
