Description

Most people knowingly or unknowingly have drank a "blended" wine. By "blended", we mean a wine comprised of more than one grape varietal. This event will take you on a journey to explore some of the most popular blends, with the hope that you walk away with a better understanding of why grape varietal blends are powerful and pleasing to the palate. Join me as we will be tasting 7 wines from around the World, but primarily with a focus on two comparisons of Old World and New World wines of the same grape varietal blends: Bordeaux and Rhone. Wines to be tasted: 1 - Old World Bordeaux blend: 2015 Chateau Cantemerle (to compare with).... 2 - New World Bordeaux blend: 2018 Beaulieu Vineyard Reserve Tapestry 3 - Old World Rhone blend: 2018 Commanderie Des Hospitaliers(to compare with).... 4 - New World Rhone blend: 2019 Tablas Creek Patelin de Tablas Rouge 5 - Super-Tuscan blend: 2019 Argentiera Villa Donoratico Bolgheri 6 - Veneto Region blend: Zeni Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 7 - White wine blend: 2021 Feudo di Santa Tresa Rina Ianca This tasting is not to be missed.
