Deal maker Bill Foley is a man of many business interests and he never misses a chance for a little cross-promotional activity.

 

Foley, majority owner of the Vegas Golden Knights, is offering Golden Knights fans who are in San Jose Monday for Game 3 between the Knights and San Jose Sharks a chance to visit one of his wineries in Napa Valley.

 

The first 50 VGK fans who register pay $30 each for a round trip charter bus ride on the “VGK Express” for a visit to Foley Johnson in Rutherford, California, where fans will receive a complimentary tasting, special Vegas Golden Knights GoVino, snacks and a special offer on wines purchased at the winery. You can register here.

 

Fans can get a $30 credit towards the purchase of any 12-bottle case of wine or wine club membership purchased at the estate. And don’t forget, fans who take the winery visit also receive a Vegas Golden Knights GoVino shatterproof wine glass.

After creating Lincourt Winery, Foley Family Wines has grown to include Chalk Hill, Roth Estates, The Four Graces and Lancaster Estate.
