October Celebrates Harvest Month

I typically do not mix my posts with upcoming events. You should follow facebook for that info. But October is such a crazy, fun month, full of festivities. I can't help but share them with you. But don't worry, I will still include my usual quirky thoughts.

Let's take it week by week.

First Week - 2 events, 1 day

Harvestfest - October 2, 2017  11pm to 6pm

For the past several years we have hosted an annual 5k Run through the vineyard. And a couple weeks later, we put on our annual Harvestfest. Last year we decided to put these two events together. What better way to end the race but with some music and a hayride.

Earlier this summer, due to rain we had to postpone our Panama Rex concert. They're a Jimmy Buffett style band so we are going to start our Havest month the Island way. Following the 5k we plan to have lime cocktails, live music, and food by Kaboburritos. 

Week Two - Bring The Kiddies

Family Fun Day - October 14, 2017  12pm tp 6pm

And you thought our winery was just for adults. The winery is quite kid friendly, but this Saturday, it's about the entire family. We call it Family Fun Day. We worked hard on that title. There will be plenty of things for the family to do. Paint your own pumpkin and paint a pumpkin on a canvas.

You can also take a hayride through the vineyard, get your bounce on in the bouncy house, get your face painted (wow that's alot of painting) and participate in the yard games we have planned. That will be a surprise. Maybe pumpkin bowling? Strike!

We will have food available for purchase.  And to celebrate the season we will have warm spiced wine and seasonal beer for the 21 and older kiddies.

Week Three - Girls Just Wanna Have Fun

Ladies Day - Saturday, October 21, 2017   12pm to 6pm

Do you remember that video? Cindy Lauper singing to her heart-broken father that she wants to cut loose and have fun. What did that mean anyway? What a great video that was. I guess I am dating myself. 

We at Paradocx actually do know what that means and we have a Ladies Day planned for you. Let's check off the list. Meet the Winemaker Gabriel Rubilar - Check, Drink some locally sourced cosmos - check, shake your booty to local musician John Rodden - check again, paint your own pumpkin themed wine glasses - check once more, and shop till you drop with Lu La Rue and other local vendors - final check.  

Is that enough fun for you? 

Final Week - Costume Contest

Hallo-Wine Party - October 28, 2017  5pm to 9pm

How do you like your Halloween? Spooky or fun? cute or sexy? No matter your preference, we are giving out drink specials for costumed guests and the top three costumes get prizes. 

Like we typically do, we will have live music from Shot in the Dark. And don't worry if the night gets chilly, you can enjoy your wine or beer by the fire. 

One Final Thought

I'll Have What She's Having

A survey from Australia once stated that women that drink 2 glasses of wine a day tend to enjoy sex more than women who don’t drink at all. I was curious about this statement so I did a little research myself . Also The Italians did a study too that found certain compounds found in red wine stimulate certain parts of the female body. 

That same test recorded that older women who's sex drive may have decreased had no problem between the sheets after two glasses of red wine. 

This is tricky because with more than one or two glasses of red wine, the other effects of alcohol kick in and may lead to that "what did I just do" and "who the hell is this?" affect. 

To make the evening that much hotter, it seams the love juice having certain characteristics also gets you to the finish line much faster. Red wines with obvious notes of musky, earthy, woodsy, licorice, and cherry aromas draw women into the erogenous zone in no time.  If this is true ladies, try our Barn Red and Leverage. 

They say blonds have more fun. Maybe you should check out what they are drinking.  

Maybe this is why our red wines are flying off the shelf.
