Greek Wines
Wednesday, January 31st
Trapp Family Lodge Wine Cellar
Now that it’s cold I’d like to revisit this tasting from the warm Mediterranean I first did during our warm months.
I spent two wonderful long summers back-packing around Greece in my 20s.
Most of the wine I drank in those student days was the cheap Retsina which tasted of pine sap from the pine barrels they used in that land of few hardwoods. It was cheap and I drank it there but couldn’t stand it after returning home.
Greece simply did not make good wines in those days, but I’m very pleased by what I’ve been tasting lately.
We will taste 3 whites and 2 reds.
Price is $20. Please call or see the front desk to place reservations. 802 253-5742. Doors open @ 4:00. I suggest you arrive no later than 5:00 to avoid feeling rushed. People come and go during the tasting which is an informal walk around format. We end at 6:00
