We are pleased to host the May tasting of 8 different red wine varietals from a similar vintage and from around the world, in a blinded fashion. Participants will rank the wines from 1 to 8 and also guess which varietal each is, and its origin (country of origin). Should be challenging but fun.
The tasting will start at 6 pm and be followed by a catered dinner. The tasting will be in a single bottle format, so limited to 22 tastes. Thanks and look forward to seeing you starting at 6 pm on May 10.
