Karen and Chuck who have the SoCal Basenji Rescue were just so tickled when their wine arrived. They had never heard of this winery or anything about Redmund. Now I'm going to have to have a couple more bottles sent to them because I don't think they're going to drink the two I sent but keep them! I've given a few bottles to friends, and they all want to keep them! Everyone just loves the story of Redmund and the label. My next order is going to have to be a little larger :) I hope they don't run out!

I ordered 4 sets of the red & white for Ruby (seeing as she is red & white she can't just give out red or just white :D) to give out as New Year's presents (although, like a dope, I should have ordered a 5th set for myself :rolleyes:)…they arrive today.
Super nice people at the winery and very easy to order. They thought it was great that Ruby was giving them out as presents :D. Now I need to design & print the gift cards... :D :D

Seems to me the forum has done wonders for their Wine sales. Pretty cool.:)

The friend I went with was still at the counter tasting wine while I was holding Redmund and getting pictures. The lady offering the tastings whispered to my friend…"Basenji owners are WEIRD!".
BWAAAAAHHHH HA HA HA HA HA HA…THAT IS HYSTERICAL!!! :D :D Yup I agree we ARE a weird bunch lol! So are our dogs :D
C3PO & TOPAZ gave their trainers Redmunds wine for Xmas. They absolutely loved it! One of the trainers won't even open it b/c she wants to keep the pic of her basenji forever. How sweet! :)
Thanks for sharing Tucker's dad :)

I am so jealous! I want to meet Redmund!! I went to Wegman's off 28 and they didn't have his wine there. I was really bummed! Especially because we went on Christmas Eve and braved the sheriffs directing traffic in and out of the grocery store!
We stopped at Wegman's just before going to the vineyard as well, to see if they had the wine. Harris Teeter DOES have their wine, but not the "Redmund's Reserve". Matter of fact, we stopped as several places to check on it, including Total Beverage and if they did have Pearmund's wine, they only had their standards and noone carries the Reserve.
If you were at Wegman's, you were only about 25 minutes from the vineyard. It's worth the visit. :)

We're Redmund's breeders. Redmund was the pup who would rather stay with people than play with his littermates. He would be interested in the other pups playing but would rather stay in our lap than participate. When talking to the Pearmunds about buying a Basenji we suggested Redmund (nee Kugawa's Watcher of Woods) because he was so attached to people.
Having lived in Northern CA most of our adult lives we have done a lot of recreational wine tasting and admired winery dogs when doing so. To have a winery dog of our own (so to speak) is very exciting. We don't think that Redmund is a show dog for a variety of reasons, mostly his bite, but he is a sweet tempered dog.
If any of you are planning on visiting Pearmund Winery let us know and we will try to meet you there. It's only about 1/2 hr from the house.
