| Selected Library Wines Available in Our Tasting Room | |
|
First Time Opportunity - we are pleased to offer a selection of Fleming Jenkins prior vintages for sale now.
With each new wine release, we set aside cases for our "Wine Library" where these wines are kept in perfect cellar conditions for future events, tastings and sales. Our Library of outstanding vintages has grown, now giving our supporters the opportunity to purchase bottles of your favorites for your cellar, gifts, or building your personal vertical collection. Our limited list of available Library Wines will change throughout the year based on quantities, and since these wines are extremely limited, they may sell out quickly. This is the ideal opportunity to purchase your favorite older vintages of Fleming Jenkins wine and to enjoy the evolution of these special bottles. We'll only keep a small stock of the Library Wines in the Tasting Room, so we may need several days for some orders to be filled from the Library. Please contact us at (408) 358-4949 or by email at gorham@flemingjenkins.com with any questions. |  |
| Wine Club's Free Corkage Program - New Restaurant Added | |
| We launched our Wine Club's free corkage program over 2 years ago, and it has been an extremely popular benefit for our members. We just recently added I Gatti in Los Gatos to our list, which features Italian cuisine from various regions throughout Italy. When purchasing your favorite Fleming Jenkins wines at our Tasting Room, Wine Club members can select to have one bottle labeled for "free corkage" at one of six local restaurants. Our list of restaurants now includes Cin Cin, I Gatti, Los Gatos Brewing Company, Steamer's Grill House, and Viva in Los Gatos, as well as Sent Sovi in Saratoga. This membership benefit is available one time per Tasting Room visit. Please ask about this special program the next time you visit us or call us at (408) 358-4949 for details, including participating restaurants.
