Watch your email for details!
And here's the fun part, share a picture of your themed meal with a Dineen Vineyard's wine using the hashtag #DineenVineyards during the month and you will be entered into a drawing for a $100 gift certificate!
Washington Wine Month Themes:
Week 1: Cabernet & Casserole
