Washington State Merlots

Saturday, April 21st

Trapp Family Lodge Wine Cellar

 

 

 

 

Washington state has long held a well-deserved reputation for producing great Merlots.

 

Their Merlots are often fuller bodied than their Cabernet Sauvignons, the opposite of the case in California.

 

Most of the vineyards in Washington are in the desert (meaning they receive less than 9 inches of rainfall a year) so they’ve become masters in the art of irrigation above and below ground.

 

Come and share in these fruits of the desert.

 

 

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
