Local Wine Events

Join me Thursday, October 29th at 6:30pm at the Inn at Palmer Divide in Palmer Lake, CO for a special tasting featuring wines of Italy’s great Barolo and Barbaresco region. These wines are made from the legendary Nebbiolo grape considered one of the great wine varieties. It is often bigger, darker and more tannic, than most types, but consequently long-lived and prized by collectors. Wines made from Nebbiolo smell of cherries, violets and black licorice or truffles and have rich, chewy, deep and long-lasting flavors. Good Nebbiolo can harmonize with the richest, strongest-flavored meats and stews, as well as dry, aged cheeses that may be too strong or distinctive for other wines.
