Tonore's Tasting Table
Volume 10 Issue 08 August 2007
Events of the Month
There are no special events scheduled for the month of August. If you would like to do a group class or wine tasting just let me know and we can work out the details.
Our Summer Wine Tasting was well attended. About 144 people attended on a day that faced some stiff competition from other events. The Gridiron Show was held on that night as well as a special event at the Masur Museum and a wine tasting at Bayou DeSiard Country Club.
Thanks to all who came and enjoyed themselves at Tonore�s Summer Wine Tasting. We are honored that you choose our event to attend over the other great events of the night.
Our next scheduled event is a Wine Class through ULM on September 6th. The class will be held at Tonore�s Wine Cellar. The topic will be Wines of France. For more information call Patrick at 318-325-4100 (Tonore�s) or e-mail [email protected] To enroll in the class contact Becky Solley at ULM Continuing Education at 318-342-1030 or e-mail her at [email protected]
The Tonore�s Oktoberfest will be held on September 27th. Put it on your calendar now. As usual we will have some great German food, German beer and German music. We will have more details in the September newsletter.
