Wine Tasting Wednesday June 6, 2007
Stop on by tomorrow and sample a range of fine wines from India. Yes, India. It's not a country traditionally associated with wine, but the huge land mass has an incredibly varied topography and micro-climates that mimic the best growing regions in the world. The wines we'll be sampling come from Grover Vineyards, a rather new vineyard with the knowledge and skill of master wine consultant Michel Rolland guiding them.

I'm not entirely sure what the sales rep will bring, but I know they're bringing two different versions of a Cab-Shiraz blend from 2003. The harvest was split into two batches, one aged in oak barrels and the other in stainless steel tanks. If you've ever wondered what character is imparted by oak-aging vs. stainless-aging this is an excellent opportunity to sample the exact same "base wine" treated in two different ways.
The tasting will be held in our BierCafe tomorrow night from 6 to 8pm and will be hosted by Rupendhar Kanuri from Premium Vintage Wine Company. It's free and open to everyone of legal drinking age.
