 Happy New Year to One and All!
Recap of recent events:
We had a fun-filled, riotous evening at the Cima Collina Winemaker’s New Year Dinner at La Playa Hotel in Carmel on Sunday night (damning and embarrassing pictures forthcoming, I promise). There was music and dancing throughout the evening, and we premiered our own estate 2005 Pinot Gris (of which we made only 35 cases) that night . Ashton and Frank are the wine directors there and were graceful hosts and share an off-the-wall sense of humor which I realy appreciate. Thanks La Playa for organizing this event and thanks for your unflagging support as well!
 Cima Collina was poured at the Pac Rep’s New Year’s party and I hear that all had a great time. At last count, 230 folks attended, but more were expected, and the evening was filled with musical performances, food, and, of course Cima Collina. We hope the folks at Pac Rep have enjoyed working with us as much as we them.
 Now, over at chezPim, Menu for Hope raised over $60,000 for the United Nations World Food Programme. This figure was well and above their goal of $35,000……Congratulations to Pim and all the folks who organized and participated. Events such as this prove the strength and commitment of the blogging community.
