News Flash<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

A new page has been introduced on the web site called News Flash, http:\/\/www.cbws.eu\/archive\/newsflash\/<\/span> <\/a>the aim of which is to make an announcement about an important upcoming event, which might take place within the Society\u2019s Calendar, or be a wine associated function taking place outside which might be of interest to members. \u00a0 It may also draw attention to the programme page when programme changes have had to be made.\u00a0 If the heading News has a lightning bolt alongside it\u00a0 means there is information of interest in News Flash, so click on News, then on the drop down menu click on News Flash and read the information.<\/span><\/p>\n

Jose Pe\u00f1in <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Our next tasting on September 17 is a very important event in that Jose Pe\u00f1\u00edn founder of Guia Pe\u00f1in is coming to talk to the Society.\u00a0 Guia Pe\u00f1in is the wine lovers reference for wines in Spain and worldwide and it is considered the \u201cbible\u201d for wine producers and the wine trade.<\/span><\/p>\n

We are delighted that Jose Pe\u00f1in has accepted our invitation which clearly reflects his interest in the Costa Blanca Wine Society. This year the Guia Pe\u00f1in is celebrating their 25th year of publication. Jose will, as he calls it, give a \u201cCata y Charla\u201d- a tasting and a chat, which will include wines that he has selected himself. This prestigious event will be held at the Parador Javea.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our Venues and Menu team have tried to get a reduction for anyone wishing to stay overnight but unfortunately as we are in \u201chigh season\u201d the hotel cannot offer discounted rates so the price is \u20ac151.50 including breakfast.<\/span><\/p>\n

You are welcome to bring friends who are interested in wine as your guests as we would like to see a healthy attendance. Please put this date in your diary!\u00a0 <\/strong>Full booking details and menu choices will be sent to you at the end of August.<\/span><\/p>\n

Wine Trip<\/strong><\/p>\n

The next wine trip will be held on 6\/7October.\u00a0\u00a0 Details of the trip and booking arrangements will be announced on the web page end of July or early August.\u00a0\u00a0 Please make a note of these dates if you would like to participate.<\/span><\/p>\n

On behalf of your Committee we hope you have a wonderful summer tasting great wines wherever you are!<\/span><\/p>\n

See you in September.<\/span><\/p>\n

Best Regards,<\/span><\/p>\n

Tim Fawle,\u00a0President<\/span><\/p>\n
