videoWine Living Virtual Tasting August 17th - Aussie Grillers
Our group members asked for lighter whites and reds for the summer, so my first thought was, "what wines are great for grilling?" My mind went to Australia. So, put on your boots, we're headed to the Land Down Under to taste three amazing wines! We'll start the tasting in Tasmania, with a rare and exotic 92-point bottle-fermented Sparkling rosé made from Chardonnay and Pinot noir. Then we'll visit Oz's premium region for Riesling - the Eden Valley - to taste a classic dry version. Lastly, we'll switch to red, to taste Australia's answer to France's Rhone Valley - a fresh, herbal 91-point Grenache. Want to get in on these tastings?

videoVirtual Wine Tasting: Old World vs New World March 2025
Join us for this virtual wine tasting as we explore two themes: Old World vs New World, and luxury wine versus mid-priced. In this tasting, we place an Old School Bordeaux from the Saint-Estephe region up against a bold Meritage (Bordeaux blend) from California's Napa Valley. Will a $45 luxury Merlot/Cabernet blend from France completely crush a mid-priced $20 Napa Cabernet/Merlot blend? Or will the new kid on the block prevail? There's only one way to find out, my friends! I lead these tasting groups once a month, and the full package includes the wines delivered to your home (US only) and admission to the event.
