I've been talking to Adam Brumberg from VOS Selections...he will be our speaker tomorrow night for the class on Greek wines. I can't wait! He's not only a really nice guy, but is very knowledgeable about wines and especially the Greek wines in his portfolio. This is going to be so much fun!
Ever heard of Assyrtiko? or Agiorgitiko? Xinomavro? Moschofilero? These are all names of varietals indigenous to Greece. Who knew, right? There are so many amazing wines - reds and whites- being made in Greece. The whites are crisp and delicious, and the reds range from light and fruity to big and dry.... and they all pair perfectly with a range of foods!
Picture yourself on the Mediterranean, basking in the sun, looking out over the deep dark blue waters and snacking on seafood.... are you there? Okay - all you need is one of these delicious wines to complete the fantasy! If you haven't made a reservation for the class, you can still learn a little about Greek wines from VOS Selections.

Cheers!

Gearing Up for Our Summer Seminar Series!
If you haven't heard yet, we are planning a series of seminars featuring local Finger Lakes winemakers. Each week beginning June 22nd, and continuing through July and August, you can attend a FREE class and taste wines with the winemaker! This is a unique opportunity to learn how each wine is made, from the vineyards to the grape selection, to production methods and more! Since seating is limited, so reservations are required. The seminar series begins on June 22nd with John Iszard from Fulkerson Winery. http://www.fulkersonwinery.com/ Check out our website for a complete calendar of events. If you have questions or would like to make a reservation, call, email or like us on FB. Cheers!
