We love this time of year in the Upper Arkansas Valley as you can partake in nearly any recreation activity possible. Last year that statement came with the caveat that our snow sports activities would be somewhat limited, but May 2019 will be an epic year for spring skiing! In fact this year dirt sports will be taking a back seat with many of our mountain trails likely not opening up until late June to early July. And let’s not forget the water sports! If you like big water you will mostly likely be in for a great season on the river as well.
It also goes without saying that we have just one more month of having Salida to our-selves and then the chaos of summer time begins with FIBArk, Artwalk, the Brewer’s Rendevous and a list that continues to grow each year. Before we get ahead of ourselves let us remember to enjoy right now! Also remember that we at The Jug are available for any of your springtime libation needs. Come talk to us if you need assistance with your camping, party and or river trip spirit needs, we would be glad to help. As always we thank you for your continued patronage and look forward to seeing you all this May at The Jug.
Sincerely,
The staff at Arlie Dale’s Jug Liquors

Tolosa Syrah 2012

A bit light and tight on the nose, this shows condensed strawberries and dried beef aromas before diving into a palate of purple berries. It's an easy-drinking, well-made wine for everyday sipping, just not showing much extra pop.
