Blind Tasting of French vs. South African Wines

25 Main Street,Nashua NH 03064

28 July, 2022

Description

For many wine drinkers, South Africa is a bit of a mystery. South Africa has been producing wine since the 17th century and their wines straddle Old World and New. The wines often smell of ripe, silky fruit, but showcase earthy flavors and beautiful elegance. France’s reputation as the world leader in fine wine is earned because French winemakers have spent centuries cultivating the vineyards and creating wines of every style and quality level coming from hundreds of unique appellations across the country. Svetlana Yanushkevich, DWS (owner of WineNot Boutique) and Pamela Jeffers (account manager Uncorked Wine & Spirits of NE) will be leading this tasting event.
