SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ The CONTINUED Quest for Lesser Known Grapes
DESCRIPTION:Wine Wednesday (the continued quest for lesser known grapes)                                  by Marty Cook \nOur Pennsylvania Wine Society Wine Wednesday event this past week was such a success that a consensus of its participants determined we should repeat the same theme again! \nFor those of you who were unable to attend our last Wine Wednesday\, the challenge was to avoid purchasing a wine for the event that belonged to the expanded Wine Folly list of eighteen Noble Grapes. \nTHE EIGHTEEN (alphabetized as a memory aid) \nCabernet Sauvignon \nChardonnay \nChenin Blanc \nGewurztraminer \nGrenache \nMalbec \nMerlot \nMoscato \nNebbiolo \nPinot Grigio \nPinot Noir \nRiesling \nSangiovese \nSauvignon Blanc \nSemillon \nSyrah/Shiraz \nTempranillo \nViognier \nFully 50% of the wine we drink comes from that list of eighteen grapes! In the meantime\, we overlook tasting wines that come from nearly 1\,400 other recognized wine grapes. \nIn the interest of combating homogeneity\, please purchase a wine made from grapes NOT on the list of eighteen Noble Grapes. This may take a bit of digging\, or you can just go to your nearest Fine Wine & Good Spirits store and ask your friendly neighborhood Wine Specialist for some help!  Below is a short list of possible lesser-known grape/wine selections that may give some idea from which to choose a wine made with a lesser-known grape varietal.  With nearly 1\,400 grape possibilities\, your success is ensured! \nHere is a short list of possible lesser-known grape/wine selections  \nAglianico\nAlbariño\nApremont (Jacquère is the grape)\nArneis\nBarbera\nBlaufränkisch (also known as Lemberger)\nBobal\nCarménère\nDolcetto\nDornfelder\nGavi\nGros Manseng\nMalvasia\nMarsanne\nMarselan\nMencia\nMondeuse\nMontepulciano\nMuscadet (Melon-de-Bourgogne is the grape)\nNero d’Avola\nPetit Manseng\nPetit Sirah\nPetit Verdot\nPinot Blanc\nPinotage\nRkatsiteli\nRoussanne\nSagrantino\nSaperavi\nTeroldego\nTorrontés\nTouriga Nacional\nVerdicchio\nVermentino\nZweigelt\nPlus\, there are any number of hybrid grapes from which to choose. Some of the above are actually hybrids of strictly V. vinifera parentage; but\, I am referencing the hybrids that have parentage from two grape species\, i.e. V. vinifera\, V. labrusca\, V. aestivalis\, and V. riparia. \nAlso\, please take a photo of your wine label in advance and send a copy to WineCat@pa.net. We will share label photos to the screen on Wednesday evening. \nJoin us Wednesday to share your discovery with everyone else that evening.  This past week’s lesser-known grapes tour was so interesting and enjoyable that the group elected to do it again next week – the best recommendation a gathering could have!   If you want to enjoy some mid-week social time over a glass of wine\, please consider joining us this coming Wednesday\, March 3rd at 7:00 p.m. Eastern for our next installment of Wine Wednesday! \nYou are invited to join us for a Zoom conference call on Wednesday 03.03.2021 at 7:00 p.m. Eastern. \nTopic: 03.03.2021 “Wine Wednesday” \nTime: Mar 3\, 2021 06:45 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada) \nClick this link to join our Meeting: \nhttps://zoom.us/j/98618036026?pwd=U0p0aS9YRjBCa3JJSmM5U1JPditWUT09 \nMeeting ID: 986 1803 6026 \nPasscode: 352048 \nOne tap mobile \n+16465588656\,\,98618036026#\,\,\,\,*352048# US (New York) \n+13017158592\,\,98618036026#\,\,\,\,*352048# US (Washington DC) \n  \nDial by your location \n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York) \n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC) \n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago) \n+1 669 900 9128 US (San Jose) \n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma) \n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston) \nMeeting ID: 986 1803 6026 \nPasscode: 352048 \nFind your local number: https://zoom.us/u/abI11eiOfh \n

SUMMARY:Virtual Informal Gathering for National Drink Wine Day
DESCRIPTION:by Marty Cook \nSome of you may have participated in the “Wine Wednesdays” Virtual Wine Tasting (VWT) events that I hosted from late July 2020 through mid-November 2020. With the mounting pressures of other personal responsibilities\, I made the decision to discontinue those events before Thanksgiving. And\, although my other responsibilities have not lessened\, I am nonetheless bringing back these events by popular demand! \nOddly enough\, I intend to resume our Wine Wednesday series of VWT events on this Thursday\, February 18th\, at 7:00 pm\, which also happens to be National Drink Wine Day!  Then\, beginning on the following week (Wednesday\, February 24th)\, we will revert back to hosting Wine Wednesday events. \nThere is a new wrinkle to the resurrected version of this VWT series. All of us will join in the tasting with a bottle of wine of our own choosing. We will take turns “going around the room” to let everyone know what we are drinking\, where it is from\, how it tastes\, and any other pertinent information. Then\, in subsequent weeks\, we will all drink the same predetermined varietal or genre of wine. \nThere is no cost to join this event (other than the bottle of wine you bring with you). The length of this session will be approximately an hour. \nIf you are interested in attending\, please use the Zoom link information below on Thursday\, February 18th\, at 7:00 p.m.  No pre-registration required. \nThanks to all\, and I hope to see you on Zoom for National Drink Wine Day! \nTo join our Zoom meeting\, please click the following link: \nhttps://zoom.us/j/99912341758?pwd=bGppdjlQWURyZ1lwU3F3UXA2OFRjQT09 \nMeeting ID: 999 1234 1758 \nPasscode: 600585 \nOne tap mobile \n+16465588656\,\,99912341758#\,\,\,\,*600585# US (New York) \n+13017158592\,\,99912341758#\,\,\,\,*600585# US (Washington DC) \nDial by your location \n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York) \n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC) \n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago) \n+1 669 900 9128 US (San Jose) \n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma) \n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston) \nMeeting ID: 999 1234 1758 \nPasscode: 600585 \nFind your local number: https://zoom.us/u/aekJ8l8DNC \n
