Haiku Giveaway: 2006 Eight Arms Syrah, Release Party in Berkeley on Sunday

This Sunday afternoon, Eight Arms Cellars will celebrate the release of their first vintage, 2006 Eight Arms Syrah, at the beautiful Riva Cucina in Berkeley. The Eight Arms Syrah, which is handcrafted using sustainable practices, will be paired with local and seasonal foods prepared by Executive Chef, Massi Boldrini. The event is free and open to the public, kids welcome.

Those who wish to purchase the Eight Arms Syrah will be supporting Eight Arms' "Go Green Drink Red" campaign, in which $1 per purchase will be donated to The Conservation Fund’s Go Zero Program, The Pacific Forest Trust, and Oceana. This year they will be producing 300 cases of wine, which amounts to $3,600.

UPDATE: We loved everyone's haikus, but luckylindy's was a stand-out:

The grapes are most green
In the state that is bluest
Where most prefer red
