What you need to do to participate is:

1. Buy this month’s wine from a local retailer or from the winery

2. Post your comments/tweets on the wine that night between 7 and 8pm. For those on Twitter, follow me @wawinereport. I will be using the hashtag #kiona during the event.

Look for updates to the blog and comments and tweets from virtual tasters starting at 7pm on the 27th. Hope you’ll join us.
