Alert - Wine Maker at PV

THIS Thursday, September 24th ~ 6 to 8 pm

 

Please join us as we welcome the Undurraga family for a very special wine tasting. We will be presenting the Koyle Syrah wine as one of our October Wine Club wines, in addition to a second label called Tempura. We will sample several varietals and you will have an opportunity to ask the winemaker questions. This will be a free tasting.

 

For six generations, starting in 1885 with Francisco Undurraga Vicuna, the Undurraga family has been growing grapes and making fine wines in Chile. Undurraga had become one of the largest and most famous names in the Chile.  In 2006, the family sold the winery, vineyards and the brand to Alfonso Undurraga Mackenna, a great-nephew of the aforementioned Francisco. He and his 3 sons work together to create hand-crafted, small production wines that show how exceptional Chilean wines can be.
