Hello Friends and Patrons,
It is with apologies I am reaching out to all of you who signed up for the wine tasting and food pairing with Iola Wines August 10th & 11th, to notify you the events have been canceled. Due to extreme heat and summer logistics, the events will not be able to execute in the way they were intended, therefore we are postponing to a later date, TBD. Myself and Marilee, from Iola Wines, apologize for the inconvenience this may cause, but we both want these events to be as magical as we envisioned and at this time, that is not panning out.
For those of you who have paid, we will reach out to you Monday for refunds. We'd like to ask that those of you who read this email, please respond with a "got it" so we know you have been notified. Otherwise, we will give you a call Monday.
Thank you all for your understanding and we will be sure to contact you all directly when we have new dates confirmed.
Until then, feel free to check out Iola Wines monthly wine subscription. Every single wine sent is FANTASTIC and the education that comes with each delivery is truly amazing! And I speak from LOTS of experience;)

Join Scarlow’s and Iola Wines for one of two intimate wine tastings and food pairings in Scarlow’s Gallery with Marilee Bramhall of Iola Wines. August 10th and 11th, 2023, we will sip naturally made wines from French and Italian female Vigneronnes at the top of their game. Marilee has worked in wine in Washington and California, studying and traveling the wine regions of Europe, and completing with Highest Honors certifications for French and Italian Wine Scholar and WSET L3 with Merit.
“There’s nothing more fun for me than mashing up theory with tasting while sharing stories about the women Vignerones behind our incredible expressive French and Italian natural wines.”-Marilee

A little more about Iola Wines and their dedication to sharing women wine growers with the world:
“Despite how women were kicking butt in so many professions, wine seemed different, especially Old World wines where the most celebrated producers rarely looked like me. No small wonder, really. For centuries, vineyards have been handed down from father to son, not daughter, pretty much leaving women out of the picture for far too long.
Fast forward in time and I realized that I could, in some small way, do my part to change the wine-world status quo: I could champion female vigneronnes who are every bit as talented as their French and Italian brethren.
My focus today isn’t just on women winemakers. It’s on outstanding wines. The women wine growers I work with are producers who’ve consistently grown and made wines of depth and beauty despite being dismissed every step of the way. These are the wines I want to drink and share with the world. These are the wine growers I want to see succeed.
Iola Wines feels like my life’s purpose; it would be an honor to have you along on this journey with me.”-Marilee Bramhall
