For the past two years I have been working part-time at Times Ten Cellars in Dallas. Several months ago, an opportunity arose for me to become involved in the opening and running of a second winery in Fort Worth. So, as of August, I have been crazy busy prepping the space and getting organized for the opening. Well, we are FINALLY here! Thursday evening we had a very successful soft opening. The Fort Worth Star-Telegram came to shoot the space and do a write up. I also invited Kevin Buchanan, a fellow blogger to come in and do a small write up on his blog Fortworthology.com. And wow, he did such a wonderful job! Check out his post today: http://fortworthology.com/2009/09/11/times-ten-cellars-has-soft-opening/
Kevin is an amazing source for new restaurants and retail opening in the Fort Worth area, and he has shown much love to the 7th St. area, so we were ecstatic to have him stop by the winery. Loved the photos he took!
Be sure to stop by the shiny, new winery and come say hi! We're in the Cultural District, so you can make a day of it by seeing a museum exhibit, not even a mile away, and finishing off the evening with a glass of wine.
I am about to embark on an eight week winemaking internship in Oregon, so the next several posts will be dedicated to my trip up there...stay tuned!
Ahem, no mention of the commissioned photography??
ReplyDeleteOh, what a terrible oversight! Yes, Silent G Imagery was commissioned to photograph the vineyard and the construction of the winery. The BEAUTIFUL prints hang in the entryway, bar, and corridor to the tank room. Now I get to look at one of my favourite places in Texas everyday. I love the Fusebox series of photographs as well.
