Campbell Liquor Presents - Monks and Wine

So what in heaven's name (excuse the pun) do monks have to do with wine?  Quite a bit, actually.    For example;  one order of monks, the Benedictines, became one of Europes largest wine producers.  There were vineyards in Champagne, Bordeaux, Burgundy and in parts of Germany too.  The modern day producers owe a debt of gratitude to various monetaries.

This is an entertaining look at how these men of the cloth had an important influence on our wines of today.  Of course you know that we'll have some wines to try too.

Richard will be pouring from 3:00 - 7:00 on Friday and 1:00 - 5:00 on Saturday.
