What's a Noble Grape? Well it's not some knightly bunch of fruit that goes around bestowing wisdom to grape growers free of charge. Rather it is a group of six grapes that a) produce quality wine without being blended with other grapes and b) it is successfully grown in several wine growing regions worldwide. Tonight we are going to taste all six types of grapes from areas around the world that produce and profit from these versatile vines. Reservations for this splendid sampling are appreciated and can be made by calling 813-879-2931 or emailing tastings@vintagewinecellars.net.
