<br />
New this year, all registrations must be done online. There is also a $10 registration fee per person. <br />
<br />
Participants must be at least 15 years of age to participate in the pick. Those under the age of 21 will receive a non-alcoholic drink with lunch and will not be eligible for a complimentary bottle of wine at the end of the event and it is non-transferable.<br />
<br />
<b>WHAT TO EXPECT ON HARVEST DAY:</b><br />
<br />
We begin at 7am at Brickyard Hill Vineyard (six miles from Fireside Winery - SW of Marengo).<br />
<br />
We will start with a brief training on how to harvest the grapes and what to pick and what to drop. Then we'll turn groups out in to the vineyard to pick. Feel free to take breaks as needed. Fireside will provide water and light snacks in the vineyard.<br />
<br />
Harvesting grapes will take place until around 12pm (depending on how quickly the grapes needed for that day are harvested.)<br />
<br />
After harvest, everyone will return to the winery to relax with lunch and a complimentary glass of wine*. To cool off your weary feet, take a plunge in the grape stomp for a bit. Before heading for home, be sure to pick up your 2014 vintage iPick t-shirt and your well earned, complimentary bottle of wine**.<br />
<br />
<b>WHAT TO BRING:</b><br />
<br />
Dress in layers (its often cold at the start and hot at the end)<br />
Bug Spray<br />
Sunscreen and Hat<br />
Water & Snacks (Fireside provides some too)<br />
Gloves if you prefer (Fireside provides buckets and clippers)<br />
<br />
Harvest events will take place rain or shine. Registration fees will only be returned if Fireside Winery cancels the event in advance due to poor harvest conditions. <br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Last week we made some changes to The Retreat that we think our guests will really enjoy. Before we had a small sitting room on the main level that had a couch and chair inside. Based on some guest feedback, we moved this furniture to the main Dining Room (which had plenty of room) and added a queen sized bed and end table to the old sitting room. Now this rent-able residence now has four private bedrooms - each with a queen sized bed.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We are trying a new event this year called Vines to Wine which we hope you'll enjoy. In previous years, we've been asked to coordinate a walk in the vineyard since its so lovely. We liked the idea but wanted a way to involve the Winery too so we come up with the idea for a walk from our vineyard, Brickyard Hill all the way back to Fireside Winery. Marengo Memorial Hospital agreed to partner with us on this event and so now the walk is a fundraiser for their foundation.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The walk will take place on Saturday, August 9th. Registration is from 7:30 8:45am at Fireside Winery. After registering, participants will be bused over to Brickyard Hill Vineyard to start the walk at 9am. The six mile walk will wind along rural, country roads in Iowa County. Expect some slight hills and loose gravel during the walk. There will be a break station half way with refreshments and restroom.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Once back at the winery, we encourage you to take a break with a glass of wine and enjoy live music by <a href="http://jordanbergren.com/" target="_blank">Jordan Bergren</a> who will be playing from 11-2pm. The 1st Lutheran Church, Conroy, will be serving up a lunch at the winery for any interested as well.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Registration Details</span></b><br />

First of all, on our site, there is now a direct link to our very own Fireside Winery shopping portal. You can also access it directly with the address: <a href="https://www.vinoshipper.com/wines/fireside_winery">https://www.vinoshipper.com/wines/fireside_winery</a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">On VinoShipper, you can pick and choose which Fireside wines you want, <b>whenever</b> it works for you and <b>whereever </b>you are. That means, yes, you can buy wine at midnight, in your pajamas, while eating popcorn and watching your favorite TV shows. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The other great benefit from the partnership is we now have the ability to ship direct to the consumer more than ever before thanks to VinoShipper's ability to share their shipping license in certain states with us.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We can now ship to all the states shaded in purple. The states in purple with lines through them indicate states that we previously had licenses to ship direct to the consumer. As you can see, the new partnership opened up Fireside wines to be shipped to 14 new states, with a grand total of 23 states. Very exciting!!!</span><br />

The list is long here at Fireside and includes visits from old (and new) friends, stunning sunsets, a bountiful grape harvest and incredible musical events. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This year we are also thankful for a gracious grant we were awarded by the Iowa Tourism Office. The grant program was open to all tourism-related businesses in the state of Iowa. We applied for grant assistance to help with costs associated with hosting the many live, musical entertainment acts we have at the winery during the year. 203 applications were submitted and Fireside Winery was one of 69 organizations to share in the grant awards. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Many thanks to the Iowa Tourism Office and Iowa Economic Development Authority for awarding us with this grant and for helping us spread the joy of wine and live music to our Iowa and visiting guests.</span><br />

It's my "go to" wine on evenings when I can effortlessly polish off a bottle of it on my own. For me, it's the perfect blend of sweetness with the wonderful flavors of the season. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This week I found another use for my delicious fall favorite. We recently had a friend of the winery bring us a bunch of delicious pears. While cooking a family dinner, my mom decided to try sauteing some pears in the Autumn Spice for dessert. The outcome was fabulous. Of course, it didn't hurt that the warm, cinnamon-spiced pears were served with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream. Even my dad and husband, who aren't huge fans of dessert, gobbled up their portions. For me, it was light and soothing after a heavy meal. If you are looking for an easy fall dessert to impress your guests, this would be my suggestion.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here's our recipe (albeit not exact as we didn't use any measurements or times)</span><br />
<br />
<ol>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Peel and slice 4 pears in half and place cut side down in a large sauce pan.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Pour Fireside Winery's Autumn Spice wine over the pears, enough so pears are resting in 1/4 inch of liquid</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Sprinkle cinnamon over the pears, cover and steam over medium high heat until the pears are easily pierced by a fork and most of the liquid is cooked off (about 10-15 minutes)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Serve each half pear with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream and ENJOY!</span></li>

last - and cook until they have reached desired tenderness. Freshly grated
parmesan can be sprinkled on top.</span><b> </b></span></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Tw Cen MT"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Fireside Winery proudly displays and sells RS Welding’s wine and garden
art creations in their tasting room. The
idea for the wine bottle started 2 years ago, after Fireside received so many
positive comments from Randy’s 291 wine bottle Christmas tree that he let them
showcase in front of the winery during the holidays. “It was fun to see how many people where
snapping photos of it and that got us thinking, we should have a larger than
life wine bottle for them to take pictures with too,” said Fireside Winery
owner, <st1:personname w:st="on">Rona Wyant</st1:personname>. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Tw Cen MT"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Mr. Schnebbe was up for the challenge and got started with the project
last year when he located a used Anhydrous Ammonia tank for the base of the
bottle. With the help of his cousin,
Peter Miller (<st1:place w:st="on"><st1:city w:st="on">Vancouver</st1:city>, <st1:state w:st="on">WA</st1:state></st1:place>), they spent nearly 40 hours on the
project which included sandblasting the exterior, removing the interior
plumbing, adding the bottle neck and stabilizing feet, and fabricating the
Fireside Winery label. It took two
material handling vehicles and 5 men to move the monstrous wine bottle from the
transport to its new home located adjacent to Fireside Winery’s driveway on
Thursday.. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

and <st1:personname w:st="on">Rona Wyant</st1:personname> also farm corn and
soybeans near Marengo, Iowa so it’s fitting the new wine bottle shares a
history of agriculture and is now part of their newer venture in the wine
business. Both Fireside and RS Welding
are excited to share the new wine bottle with the public and hope it has a
positive impact to both businesses. To
build excitement for the new creation, both businesses plan on running a
Facebook Contest for fans to guess how many bottles of wine would actually fit
inside the metal bottle. Become a fan of

For the palate that prefers a softer, yet light and crisp wine, pair our Riesling-style BLU with these same meals.

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Be sure white and blush wines are thoroughly chilled and remain in a cooling device. They may not spoil as your main course might, but keeping them at a lower temperature will greatly enhance flavors. </span><br />

for Mothers' Day on May 12, Fireside Winery is offering a few brunch ideas for
fairly effort-free fun paired with several of our wines. See suggestions and
recipes below.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Offer chilled
Serenade, BLU, or Firefly as an alternative to grape juice or mimosas and cut
calories simultaneously. Add a decorative and tasty flair to a glass of BLU or
Firefly by slicing a fresh strawberry from the tip almost to the stem, placing
it on the rim of the glass.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>BLU</b>, a semi-sweet blend of Geisenheim and
Seyval Blanc grapes, is refreshing white wine on its own, but it also adds a
complementary touch when paired with egg dishes, French toast, fruit, cheeses or
rolls.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Firefly</b>,
a slightly sweeter blush, also pairs well with breakfast dishes including plain
Greek yogurt parfaits. Firefly adds a fruity note to croissants or other breads
such as a bacon muffin.<b> </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Serenade</b>, with its Concord sweetness, can serve as a grape juice
alternative or a dessert, and provides a sweet finish to homemade muffins.</span></div>

<span style="color: #990000; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Still thinking of how to treat your mom this Mother's Day, Sunday, May 12th? How about a Sunday afternoon picnic at Fireside's Brickyard Hill Vineyard? </span><br />
<span style="color: #990000; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #990000; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">New this year, Fireside Winery is opening up its Vineyard, located 5 miles west of the Winery, to wine friends who would like to enjoy a relaxing and casual picnic among the vines. The picnics are offered on the 2nd Sunday of each month, May - September, and will provide visitors with a chance to see how the grape vines unfold from buds in May to full, ripe berries in September. </span><br />
<span style="color: #990000; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<span style="color: #990000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For $25, we'll provide a gourmet boxed lunch, bottle of wine, water and a blanket, all to be enjoyed at the Vineyard. Reservations for lunches are required by the Thursday prior at 4 pm. Call or email Cassie Bott, 319-662-4222 or cassie@firesidewinery.com.</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #990000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On May 12, the picnic will consist of a </span><span style="color: #990000; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Poppyseed Chicken Pita, Italian pasta, and a Peanut Butter Brownie. And of course, wine and bottled water. </span><br />
<span style="color: #990000; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #990000; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Times for the event are 11:30 am to 1:30 pm and will be held rain or shine. All parties attending the event should meet at the Winery at 11:15 am, and we'll travel in caravan to the Vineyard. In the event of rain, the picnic will take place at Fireside Winery. Feel free to bring extra blankets or camping chairs as well.</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #990000; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After the picnic we encourage you to come on over to listen to the Sunday Afternoon Tunes at the Winery.</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #990000; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Second Sunday dates for the 2013 season are: </span><br />
<span style="color: #990000; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">May 12, June 9, July 14, August 11 and September 8.</span><br />

<span style="color: #660000; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Wine is one of <b>many </b>reasons we all need to do our part to protect Mother Earth. H</span><span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">ere at Fireside, we do our part by recycling. Not only do we recycle cardboard, aluminum and plastic containers, we also collect all glass materials including our bottles and send them to a local redemption center where it is crushed down to be made into new glass products. </span></div>

<span style="color: #660000; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I found this interesting article from the National Geographic about glass container recycling . The article stated, "</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #660000; font-family: arial, sans-serif; line-height: 19px;">Unlike many other recyclables, glass can be recycled an unlimited number of times." </span><a href="http://greenliving.nationalgeographic.com/glass-container-recycling-2826.html" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">http://greenliving.nationalgeographic.com/glass-container-recycling-2826.html</a></div>

<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Another green initiative Fireside Winery practices is using steam to clean our wine storage tanks and equipment. Last year we invested in a new steam cleaning system. Steam created by this system sterilizes the equipment without the use of harsh and environmentally harmful chemicals so we are able to reduce the amount of toxins that could potentially impact our air and water quality. </span></div>

How is that, you ask? Well on the weekend of <b>March 22-24</b>, Fireside Winery will be having its ever popular, bi-annual CASE SALE. Case purchases (12 bottles or more) will receive a 20% discount. If you figure the average cost of a bottle is $12, the 20% off savings for a case would be about $28. So you see, the savings equals a little more than 2 bottles of wine for that particular case. Now that's a deal worth driving for. </span><div>

<div>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We often get asked if the cases can be mixed and yes, they certainly can. Also, Fan Club members may renew their memberships during this time if their within they're renewal period (call the winery if you're not sure). We will not, however, enroll new Fan Club members during this weekend at the 20% discount. To become a Fan Club member during the Case Sale weekend, the first case must be purchased with the normal 10% discount.</span><div>

<div>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Fireside Winery offers the bi-annual case sales in March and November of each year. This year's Spring Case Sale happens to be the weekend before Easter, a holiday where wine is commonly enjoyed with the festive meal. Ham is often served during the Easter holiday. For white wine pairing ideas, we suggest our BLU, Firefly or Storyteller. These slightly sweet wines will be a great balance to the saltiness of the ham. If you prefer red wines, we suggest a lighter styled red such as our Hearthstone or Frontenac that wouldn't overpower the meat. And for dessert, forget that huge chocolate bunny you've been eyeing in your kid's Easter basket, and go for your own heavenly delight with a glass of our new chocolate and raspberry infused dessert wine, Sweetheart. </span></div>
