Michigan by the Bottle’s Tweet & Taste with Shady Lane

We're live at: #ttmi

Next Tuesday (April 13, 2010) at 8 PM EST you can join Michigan by the Bottle for their Tweet & Taste with Shady Lane winemaker Adam Satchwell, a master sommelier and several Michigan wine bloggers to explore a select group of wines from Shady Lane Cellars and share tasting notes and impressions on Twitter. To participate, all you need to do is pick up the three wines (Shady Lane Cellars 2008 Dry Riesling, 2008 Blue Franc, 2007 Pinot Noir) at your local wine shop or online at Shady Lane Cellars (1 cent shipping through April 13) and then log on to Twitter Tuesday night and share your impressions using the #ttmi hash tag.

If you're in the Traverse City area, you can also join Absolute Michigan beginning at 7 PM on Tuesday at our new offices at The Village at Grand Traverse Commons for our "tweet-in" with winemaker Adam Satchwell! We're located right next to Salon de Capelli in Building 50 (we promise Google will have us mapped soon) and you can call us at 231-421-1172 if you get lost!

Speaking of Traverse City and Michigan by the Bottle, tomorrow night (Friday, Apr 9) from 6-9, they will be doing a podcast taping and interview (see Facebook for the details) with owner/wine-maker Bryan Ulbrich. There will be some tasty food for snacking along with $3 pints of Cinnamon Girl Hard Cider and $3 glasses of new release Riesling MD from the big tank in their tasting room. The Wurlitzer will be on free play all night and who knows - you might become a star in the Michigan by the Bottle taping!
