Join us for a wine comparison of 6 wines. We will sample from three bottles of BIG Red Wines.
These wines are Unicorns and will not be seen in public unless you are with an experienced field guide, in remote parts of the world, filled with dark caverns of unsoiled gems.
ALSO
We will sample each wine next to a corresponding wine of the regionwith a smaller price tag. Not necessarily lower in quality, just in a lower tax bracket.
ALSO
We will be tasting these wines BLIND!!! The bottles will be bagged up and poured in order.
You will receive a tasting list of the wines, taste two wines at a time side by side, and will attempt to decide which wines are which!!!
We will give a quick “Humble Vine” dive into the regions we are tasting and describe some of the typical practices and flavors. We will hand out a few prizes and have as much fun as we can.
We will have cheeses, fruits, and meats to refresh the palate.
A lesson of Quality over Quantity? Or a lesson in All that glitters is not always gold? You decide!

Marques de Caceres, 1986 Gran Reserva, Rioja $125 V. LAN 2012 Rioja Reserva $22
