Join Neudorf winemaker John Kavanagh at Juicy Wine Co. late night from 10 to midnight tasting his new release sauvignon blanc, pinot noir and chardonnay while savoring grilled NZ lamb racks and Green Lip Mussels.

Neudorf Vineyards of Nelson, is a New Zealand producer of incredibly intense, textured Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir. 
90 point Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay from Robert Parker.
'Neudorf is undoubtedly one of the leading lights of Nelson, one of the top wineries in New Zealand. Located on north-facing slopes in the Moutere Hills on sandy-loam topsoil with clay subsoil that engender natural acidity; under winemaker John Kavanagh, Neudorf is producing high quality wines that aspire towards the Old World, suffused with minerality and nervosite. Everything except the Sauvignon Blanc is hand-picked and generally the Brightwater wines are fermented using cultured yeasts whilst the Mouteres use wild ferments.'  RP

Winemaker John Kavanagh will be in Chicago for ONE day. He is working the market during the day and grilin' and chillin' with you all at Juicy on Wednesday night late night.
