THANK YOU FROM DR. BOB Thank you to all of the Bending Br anch Winer y club member s, Ur sa Vineyards Gold Rush club member s, and to ever yone who is a member of both of these clubs. I appreciate all the suppor t you give to our wine progr ams. My wife Brenda and I established Bending Br anch Winer y in 2009, and we acquired the Ur sa Vineyards br and in 2014. In 2019, we focused the Br anch on High tasting room on Ur sa and also star ted the Ur sa Gold Rush Club. Our business relationship and fr iendship with Ur sa Vineyards Winemaker s Greg Stokes and Debor ah Elissagar ay dates back to 2007. It has been a pleasure to work with them and to feature their winemaking in Comfor t.
The optional summer club release packages are a special way to br ing together selections from both br ands. Our team has cur ated three different optional release packages for member s. The packages combine Ur sa wines from Califor nia and Bending Br anch wines from Texas, and they are available to both Ur sa and Bending Br anch club member s. Whether you're a fan of white wines, red wines, or a combination of red, white, and pink wines, there is a package that will take your palate on a fantastic jour ney. I hope you enjoy these wines with good food and great fr iends this summer. Stay cool!
