=== Wine Club Pick Ups ===
<u>Friendly reminder that it is IMPERATIVE that you remember to mark a club pick up as “picked up” when you give it to the member. Failure to do so can result in us giving away wine. To that extent, we have had several members notify us that they had previously done their pick-up up and when they next came in a staff member insisted they had one and gave them an additional pick-up. Obviously we can avoid this by doing the right steps at pick-up, but in the event a guest tells you they don't believe they have a pick-up or already picked up, trust them and mark it as picked up.</u>


=== Early Pickup Requests ===
=== Early Pickup Requests ===
Early pickups must be confirmed by completing the "Modify Club" form. This form can be found on the home screen of every iPad in the tasting room! The new section should be used in the event a wine club member is picking up their release wines prior to the club release date. When you open the form you will see an option named "Early Pick-up" once you click this option the form will ask for member name, member email address & phone number. You all will just need to complete one question which asks for info regarding modifications to the wine selections & pick up date! <u>'''Please make sure all fields listed are completed, and match the information on file!'''</u> '''<u>If you swap any wines, please ensure that you provide detailed notes of the exchanges and specify vintage (i.e. "23 SB SS" vs "SB").</u>'''

[[NV Wild Boar Cellars Blanc de Blancs]]
As we near the end of both the Rosé and the Cabernet Franc we will be introducing the 2023 Maison Sanglier Pinot Noir to the menu, similarly to the 2022 this is a Vin de France. The Malbec has joined the tasting menu to replace the Cabernet Franc. We have also added the Kristi to the tasting menu which is always a fun way to highlight the stylistic differences of our Chardonnays!


==== MEET & GREET WITH JAMES ====
[[NV Wild Boar Cellars Blanc de Noirs]]
Since I know many of you haven’t had the pleasure of meeting the man at the helm of our talented cellar team, Monday, September 23rd we will be having a “meet and greet” with James in Wild Boar Hall at 6.30pm. James will provide a harvest update and Chef and his team will provide pizzas to be enjoyed. '''<u>Please RSVP by Friday, September 13th.</u>'''


==== HARVEST GAME ====
[[2020 Stone Tower Estate Blanc De Blanc]] (now available by the glass)
As harvest is underway we wanted to add some extra fun to the mix! Whichever staff member is able to guess the closest to our final tonnage of fruit that we bring in this year will receive a prize from the production team! Submit your guesses by Friday, September 13th - no cheating or asking for hints from production!


Here are some fun Stone Tower facts to help you determine your guess!
WHITE & ROSÉ WINE:


95 acres under vine
[[2023 Stone Tower Winery Sauvignon Blanc]]


1 acre = 800-1500 vines per acre
[[2023 Stone Tower Winery Chardonnay]]


20-40 clusters per vine
[[2023 Stone Tower Winery Sycolin Creek]]


70-100 grapes per cluster
RED WINE:


0.2-0.4 lbs per cluster
[[2023 Maison Sanglier Pinot Noir Vin de France]]


0.5-2 grams per grape
[[2022 Wild Boar Cellars Sanglier Noble]]


2000 lbs = 1 ton
[[2022 Stone Tower Merlot]]


==== CLUB CORNER ====
[[2022 Stone Tower Winery Cabernet Franc]]
Angela had the great idea of introducing the Wine Club Corner! There are always questions about everything STW and wine in general so we thought it might fun to include a short note each week to help you all become even more familiar with our wine clubs, clubs in general and we will be throwing in a few fun random facts! In the weekly email we will include a few notes on a topic (mostly related to clubs).If there is a topic you all would like to learn more about or think would be interesting for the team please feel free to send us a note!

=== MENU UPDATES ===
Soup of the Week is <u>Calabaza Chili: Beef and Butternut Squash Chili with Beans (1/17/25)</u>


How was the “Wine Club” invented?
No change to the food/specials menus


Although mail-order services for wine can be traced back to 1910 the wine club structure as it is used today was not established until 1972. Bringing a whole new meaning to wine is the best medicine, the first official wine club membership was founded by a pharmacist who happened to acquire a liquor store.
==== CLUB CORNER ====
'''We currently have one spot remaining in the Estate Club!'''


Paul Kalemikisrian Sr. started curating selections from CA wineries, he featured these selections in the liquor store and also detailed the selections in his newsletters… interest grew and the selections started selling. This subscription became The Wine of Month Club(WOMC)
Updating declines


Much like the Tower Cru Signature Club the first selections for the WOMC included a red wine & a white wine. At Stone Tower we are able to offer a myriad of selections for our members. Each release is created with the members in mind taking into account the season, popularity of certain wines & variety within each club!

'''Events is Hiring!'''
What does it take to sign-up a new member


Our events team is currently hiring for 2 full time positions! With Olivia and Tyler both departing us on Labor Day Monday we are looking for full time event coordinators. If you are interested please email your cover letter and resume to Lauren@stonetowerwinery.com.
* Most members visit a winery 3-4 times before joining the winery club. Think of all the first time visitors you all sign-up…way to beat expectations!!
* Potential members visiting these days are looking for something very different from previous generations, they want a story something unique which puts Stone Tower and you all in the perfect spot!
* Our guests love learning about the history of the property, the Huber family and their passion for wine & creating memorable experiences. The stories that you all have shared about why you choose & continuing to choose to work at Stone Tower is exciting for guests!
Length of membership?


'''Harvest Update'''
* The average wine club member stays in a club for 31.8 months, the average Stone Tower member is a member for 30 months but we do have members that have been a part of the Stone Tower community for 11 YEARS!! That is amazing!
* A little over one fourth of the Estate Club has been in the club since it was founded in July of 2017
Why do our members love the Tower Cru, Estate & Cellar Club


Yesterday the team completed harvest of the Albariño! They have also made their way through the Pinot Noir, have picked the Chardonnay that will be utilized for sparkling, as well as a bit of Cabernet Franc that will be used for sparkling! Today we anticipate picking the Merlot that will be used in the Rosé before making our way into the whites next week with Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, and Viognier!
* Spectacular views!
* The wines & food offerings! Stone Tower wines are only distributed to a select few local restaurants and only certain wines are made available, Stone Tower wines are not sold in stores. Since the wines are exclusively available on the property, members have exclusive access to the wines, the wines are being set aside just for them!
* The people!! The number of instances that we have received an email or call from an elated member with a wonderful story about one of you all is pretty frequent. Our members love being a part of this community!
* Cru Night! Most wineries do not offer extended hours and it is a lovely way for them to enjoy themselves here at the end of a work week.

Wine Club

Wine Club Pick Ups

Friendly reminder that it is IMPERATIVE that you remember to mark a club pick up as “picked up” when you give it to the member. Failure to do so can result in us giving away wine. To that extent, we have had several members notify us that they had previously done their pick-up up and when they next came in a staff member insisted they had one and gave them an additional pick-up. Obviously we can avoid this by doing the right steps at pick-up, but in the event a guest tells you they don't believe they have a pick-up or already picked up, trust them and mark it as picked up.

Early Pickup Requests

Early pickups must be confirmed by completing the "Modify Club" form. This form can be found on the home screen of every iPad in the tasting room! The new section should be used in the event a wine club member is picking up their release wines prior to the club release date. When you open the form you will see an option named "Early Pick-up" once you click this option the form will ask for member name, member email address & phone number.

What does it take to sign-up a new member

  • Most members visit a winery 3-4 times before joining the winery club. Think of all the first time visitors you all sign-up…way to beat expectations!!
  • Potential members visiting these days are looking for something very different from previous generations, they want a story something unique which puts Stone Tower and you all in the perfect spot!
  • Our guests love learning about the history of the property, the Huber family and their passion for wine & creating memorable experiences. The stories that you all have shared about why you choose & continuing to choose to work at Stone Tower is exciting for guests!

Length of membership?

  • The average wine club member stays in a club for 31.8 months, the average Stone Tower member is a member for 30 months but we do have members that have been a part of the Stone Tower community for 11 YEARS!! That is amazing!
  • A little over one fourth of the Estate Club has been in the club since it was founded in July of 2017

Why do our members love the Tower Cru, Estate & Cellar Club

  • Spectacular views!
  • The wines & food offerings! Stone Tower wines are only distributed to a select few local restaurants and only certain wines are made available, Stone Tower wines are not sold in stores. Since the wines are exclusively available on the property, members have exclusive access to the wines, the wines are being set aside just for them!
  • The people!! The number of instances that we have received an email or call from an elated member with a wonderful story about one of you all is pretty frequent. Our members love being a part of this community!
  • Cru Night! Most wineries do not offer extended hours and it is a lovely way for them to enjoy themselves here at the end of a work week.

Plates/Silverware TVTR

Hi team! Friendly reminder when guests are ordering food at the Tower View Tasting Room bar please ensure you send them on their way with the necessary utensils and plates so they are able to enjoy their food as soon as it arrives! Food runners, please take the opportunity at the table to ask if you can get anything out of their way (take the initiative to pre-bus) and ask if they need anything else!

Miscellaneous

Gift Cards are now in the TVTR office by the iPads, instead of the club room!!
