Award Winning Yadkin Valley Winemakers Collaborate on On Second Red Wine Blend Offering

Pilot Mountain and Ronda, N.C., February 15, 2018 – On Saturday, March 10, 2018, JOLO Winery & Vineyards and Raffaldini Vineyards will host back-to-back special release events for their second red wine blend collaboration, RARA Sisboombah.

The wine is a collaboration among longtime friends, JW Ray and Jay Raffaldini. Both men are dedicated to producing higher quality wines and serve as passionate advocates for the growth potential of the Yadkin Valley wine region.

"My great friend JW is a quintessential winemaker of unsurpassed skill, Owner Jay Raffaldini, said. “I’m excited to once again create a wine that represents our shared passion and the many years of dedication to our craft.”

This year's RARA Sisboombah was produced by blending JOLO's 2016 Crimson Creek “Reserve” with the 2016 Raffaldini Montepulciano Riserva. The inaugural offering sold out in less than three days.

"My reverence for Jay for bringing old world wine techniques to this region to massage the European varietal characteristics out of North Carolina grapes cannot be overstated." JOLO founder JW Ray said. "The entire Raffaldini team continues to raise the bar for all of us. Jay is a true visionary and an inspiration. I’m very fortunate to call him a great friend. I couldn’t be more excited about this 2nd bottling of this world-class wine."

Raffaldini and Ray will co-host two gatherings on Saturday, March 10th, where they will share their winemaking stories over light refreshments. The first event will take place at Raffaldini Vineyards beginning at noon. Reservations can be made by clicking here. The second gathering will begin at approximately 2:30 p.m. at JOLO Winery & Vineyards. This event is open to the public.

A very limited number of bottles will be available for sale at JOLO and Raffaldini Vineyards while supplies last. Bottles are priced at $40.

Introducing Pino Vino X

The Pino Vino Wine Label Competition is coming to a conclusion with this year’s label. Throughout the last ten years, many of you have participated in the Pino Vino wine release by submitting your rescue animal for consideration to be on each year’s label. Raffaldini Vineyards has been honored to host this competition, and we have all grown to appreciate even more the efforts people make to rescue animals. In its first year, Pino Vino featured the Raffaldini family rescue dog, Pinot, who originally hailed from Athens, GA. Over the years, various local rescue organizations have received donations based on the sale of Pino Vino wine. While the Pino Vino X label has been chosen, it will not be the end of Raffaldini Vineyards' participation in animal rescue organizations.

Please mark your calendars now to join us at Raffaldini Vineyards on June 16, 2018 for the release of Pino Vino X.

Important Information About our Wine Club

*|MC_PREVIEW_TEXT|*

Dear Amici,

I hope this email finds everyone happy and healthy after a joyful holiday season with loved ones. I rarely send out emails to our wine club members unless there is something noteworthy to report. I have some exciting updates about La Famiglia Raffaldini Wine Club. I am happy to announce that we are introducing a tiered wine club so that you will have the option to select your desired experience. I am grateful for your support and appreciation of our wines.

We will offer three different club levels and they are set forth below:

Classico Tasting Pass:

The Classico Tasting Pass is an annual, individual tasting pass, which entitles a member to one tasting or one glass of wine with each visit to the Villa. There are no restrictions on the number of visits per year.
The annual charge is $180 per person. For sign ups during the year, the annual fee will be prorated on a monthly basis.
A special Classico Club member card will be made for you annually.

Superiore Club:

The Superiore Club wine club will consist of a semi-annual selection of six bottles chosen by me plus any six bottles you choose.

You will receive a Superiore Club exclusive of 10% discount on your purchase of 12 bottles or more, and 15% off when you purchase 24 bottles or more.
Two Classico Tasting Passes are included with your membership.
You will receive Superiore Club-member only pricing on select Raffaldini events.
A special Superiore Club member card will be made for you annually.

Riserva Club:

The Riserva Club, our elite level club, is designed for the top 10% of our wine-buying members based upon wine purchase levels and meeting the annual Superiore Club purchase requirements.
In addition to the benefits of the Classico Tasting Pass and Superiore Club levels, Riserva Club members will have access to events with me as I release older vintages. You will have priority seating at dinners and at the villa (with notice). There will be discounts at the inn and cottages and its restaurant once operational.
A Raffaldini Team member will notify you if you qualify for this level and provide further information about the Riserva Club.
A special Riserva Club member card will be made for you.

All existing wine club members will continue to receive all current wine club benefits until the next release in March 2018.

Thank you again for your belief and commitment to our dedication to quality. If you have any questions please so not hesitate to contact my Tasting Room Manager Thomas Salley at thomas@raffaldini.com or 336.835.1547.

Salute,

Jay Raffaldini

Make America Clean Again

As a part of our regular commitment to our community, we completed our quarterly North Carolina Department of Transportation Adopt-a-Highway pickup this week. We gathered more than 15 55-gallon trash bags of roadside litter in the 3.5 mile stretch surrounding Raffaldini Vineyards in in Wilkes and Yadkin Counties. Every quarter, our staff works together to pick up litter and other garbage thrown on the roads.
