Wine is an exciting living thing. Consider all that the grapes go through during the growing season, the changing temperatures, variations in rainfall etc. no two years are exactly the same. Then the grapes are picked, crushed, fermented, aged and bottled. The ‘living’ doesn’t stop at the bottling phase. Changes continue to take place in the bottle, during the aging process. Open a bottle of the same wine a year from now and it will be a different experience. Comparing wines from the same vineyard but from different years can be a very insightful experience.

The wine experience continues to change. Maybe you add wine to a dish you’re preparing. Maybe you serve wine with a dish you’ve prepared, or paired it with appetizers. Maybe you discover a new wine that you like that a friend introduced you to or maybe you’re the one who introduced your favorite wine to friends.

The wine experience is never ending – come join us on this journey.
