About this Event
Though France and South Africa have vastly different soils and climates, they share some of the same grape varieties! We are thrilled to offer the opportunity for you to taste them side by side, and learn the similarities and differences of each. This is a fantastic way to experience the terrior (climate, soil, and topography) and its effects on each variety.
We are welcoming special guests Rick Hetzel from Tramonte Distributing Co., and Megan Buehrer from Skurnik Wines and Spirits. They will guide you through the evening while showcasing the wines from each region. Plus, you will enjoy a spread of cheese, crackers, bread, grapes, nuts and jams to enhance your tasting experience!
Some of the varieties and styles you will compare from each region:
Sauvignon Blanc
Chenin Blanc
Rose
Bourdeaux and a Bourdeaux style blend
The event will run from 6pm - 8pm in our retail store, which you may arrive at any time. The wines will be available for purchase after the event. If you would like to make a dinner reservation prior to or after your tasting, give us a call at (440) 210-0024 or visit bit.ly/3yM3fVT
