Rangeland News February 2022

Contents: Appreciation, Wine Specials, Bull Burger, Cellar Sale, March Dinner

Valentine's Day is for lovers and also, I contend, a mutual appreciation day among friends. It's about love and fondness, but you don't want to confuse these two categories.  Otherwise you spend too much time in bed with too many different people. The day just gets away from you. I'm for wine, beef and flowers to friends all around, but in most cases, keeping your pants on. Happy Valentine's Day from your appreciative, but fully clothed friends at Rangeland. 

Wine Specials for February

Our 2017 Closeout Special has been a big hit, and we are now sold out of the 2017 Cabernet and Ultramafic.  We still have some 2017 Watershed bordeaux style blend ($40 list) and Limestone Reserve Cab ($50 list), so we are going to continue with the Closeout Special through February 28: buy six bottles in any combination of these 2 wines and get 10% off plus your wine club discount with $1 shipping. Or buy any 12 bottles or more of these wines and get 15% off, plus club discount and $1 shipping. While supplies last. Order by email. 

Our 2020 El Joven was styled as a fresh wine with no barrel aging. We sold most of this alluring blend (merlot and petit verdot) to Valentine's enthusiasts but we have a few cases left and want to sell it while it's still fresh. We are offering this young wine at $150 per case (just $12.50 per bottle, no additional club discounts apply), while supplies last, shipping included. Order here.

Bull Burger Patties

We are still offering 5 lbs. of grass-fed beef bull meat for $50 before club discount. The meat is vacuum sealed and frozen as 1/4 lb. hamburger patties in 1 lb. packages. Free shipping. Order here.

Cellar Sale This Saturday, February 19

We have been tasting some cellar wines and many are aging beautifully. We will be pouring half a dozen wines from 2008 to 2015 and offering a dozen or more for sale. Cabs, zins, petite sirahs, blends and more. For a $20 tasting fee (free to club members), you can taste and buy rare, discounted Rangeland library wines and snack on charcuterie. Saturday February 19, 10am to noon. Reserve your spot here.
