Night Wines - The Wine Passport Series
Thursday May 20th, 2010 - 6-7:30pm
with Ron Quint, CSW
$25/person
For many of us, our wine life starts with that $8 bottle
that we pull off the shelf, and then evolves to, "Hey,
I like Reds!" At times, we even get comfortable
splurging on a bottle from an unfamiliar region. However,
at other times, we stay in our comfort zone though we
want to travel to a new place. So we are offering a
Wine Passport to help. In fact, we are willing to teach
you! After all, wine is a journey for all of us and
we all go through different phases. Our goal is to elevate
your game, helping you to find new and delicious everyday
wines. In our next class, we will feature.
-Amadio Cabernet Sauvignon- McLaren Vale, Australia
-Poppy Pinot Noir- Monterrey, California
-John B Red (Cabernet Sauvignon/Tinta Barocco) Robertson,

Whether you have "rosé reluctance"
or you have already joined the rapidly increasing fan
base of this incredibly varied wine style, you are invited
