"CENTRAL COAST FUTURES . . . SOONER OR LATER "
Featuring the 2007 Wines and Winemakers/Proprietors of

AU BON CLIMAT
QUPE
HITCHING POST
MARGERUM


Dear Wine Associates:

We sure hope you are able to join us on Wednesday, March 18, 2009 for what promises to be one of the most exciting CENTRAL COAST FUTURES seminars ever. This year we will have wines from four of California's finest wineries along with their winemakers/proprietors. What a treat to present, all together at the same event, JIM CLENDENEN from AU BON CLIMAT, BOB LINDQUIST from QUPE, FRANK OSTINI & GRAY HARTLEY from HITCHING POST and DOUG MARGERUM from MARGERUM WINE COMPANY.

Each year, this is one of the most entertaining and educational events we present. All of our guest winemakers are knowledgable and personable. For those of you attending for the first time, you are in for a special treat. You will be able to taste excellent wines and hear, firsthand, detailed information about their production and characteristics. For those of you who have attended previous Central Coast Futures seminars, you already know what a great time you can expect.

Frank Ostini is also the owner of the outstanding Hitching Post restaurant in Buellton, California. He has promised to bring us a barbecue treat from his famous restaurant, as well as allow us to have the World Premiere of his new top-of-the-line Pinot Noir, Perfect Set. We know that Jim, Bob, Frank, Gray and Doug will have fabulous wines and stories to share with us. All of these "boys" started out together in the Santa Barbara area in the early 1980s and they are really looking forward to being together for this "futuristic" occasion.

"SOONER OR LATER" best describes what we will be offering - wines that either will be released by April 1, 2009, or wines that you can purchase "on future" for delivery between June and October, 2009. All of the wines shown will be offered for sale at the event with GENEROUS DISCOUNTS BETWEEN 20% and 25%. So come early (7:00 p.m.) for a walk-around tasting and meet the winemakers as they pour several of the wines listed below. Then, make yourselves comfortable at our sit-down seminar and enjoy all of the other great wines.
