What’s
New!
Dear Wine Lover,
If you didn't receive this
letter last year, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Rich
Mattina, I'm a local resident who  opened
a winemaking School in the heart of Westchester County in 2004.
I'm happy to report that over 150 people are making wine with us!
Some of their photos are included in this letter.
For those of you that are unfamiliar with
what we are offering, pour yourself a glass of wine and read the
rest of this letter.
Where is it?
The Make Your Own Wine School
of Winemaking is located at 105 Fairview Park Drive, in Elmsford,
NY. We are centrally located and within walking distance from the
driving range, ice skating rink and Sam's Club. It's easy to reach
and close to home!
About the School
There are four class sessions combining informative
presentations with hands-on winemaking activities in a fun and friendly
learning environment. The classes are tied to the four phases of
winemaking and scheduled at specific times throughout the year:
| •Crushing/Destemming |
Mid-August- November |
| •Pressing |
August- November |
| •Racking |
February |
| •Bottling |
July |
 About
the Grapes!
Within five days of harvesting, your grapes arrive
in our facility. This ensures the optimal sugar and acid levels
necessary to produce balanced wines. The following California red
and white grape varietals are available for you to Make
Your Own Wine: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Sangiovese, Syrah,
Zinfandel, Chardonnay, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, and Riesling to
name a few. There are also a variety of blends available depending
on your palette preference.
More Information
Check out www.MYOwine.com
for detailed information, or to inquire about corporate events,
fundraisers and private parties. Due to last year's demand, we began
accepting reservations in February for this upcoming season. If
you would like to see our facility (and sample some wine) call me
at 914-741-5425. I've enclosed a brochure for you to share with
friends and family. Soon you too could be drinking your own wine--complete
with a personalized label.
 Also,
check-out our Television and Magazine advertise-ments on CNBC, News12
Westchester, Food TV, and Westchester Magazine beginning
this Summer.
I welcome your calls and look forward
to meeting you soon.
Sincerely,
Rich Mattina

Introduction
Dear Wine
Enthusiast,
 My
name is Rich Mattina, a local resident opening a Winemaking School
in the heart of Westchester County! If you love wine as much as
I do, you might want to pour a glass right now, relax, put your
feet up, and read the rest of this letter.
How Does it Work?
There will be four class sessions combining informative
presentations with hands-on winemaking activities in a fun and
friendly learning environment. The classes are tied to the four
phases of winemaking and are scheduled at specific times throughout
the year:
During the Racking Session, you will
also Make Your Own Custom-Designed
Wine Labels to Make Your Own Wine
even more personal and special, when enjoying yourself or sharing
with others.
 Your
seminars are held in our new facility housing two theme-decorated
wine cellar rooms. Then, hands-on winemaking takes place in our
climate controlled 3,500 sq. ft. area with state-of-the-art equipment
and oak barrels for the proper aging of your wine.
We notify you when your order from
our Varietal Menu of California grapes arrive, and your classes
are scheduled accord-ingly. Excited? The
Make Your Own Wine experience is ready to begin!
Look for more information in the
weeks to come as we keep you posted on our latest activities.
We hope you are as excited as we are to have MYO
Wine - Westchester’s School of Winemaking
so close to home.
Thanks for your time, and if you
have any questions, or would like more information, please do
not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Rich Mattina
MYO Wine
President and Master Winemaker
