SUMMARY:Aromatized Wines - Vermouth\, Vini Amari\, and Bitters 
DESCRIPTION:This will be an overview of aromatized wines\, or wine-based beverages that are flavored with botanicals. A few may have neutral spirits added for stabilization and may be classified as fortified wine. \nOur tasting and discussion will break into four different areas to help understand aromatized wines. \nFirst\, with different Vermouth brands; their styles and origin. \nThen we will explain (wine based) Vini Amari or bitter wines and their uses. \nDigging a little deeper into the aromatized category\, and similar to vermouth\, are uniquely flavored Quinquina wines and its subcategory Americano. \nPlease check back closer to event month for event details\, including the Zoom connection information.

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ Malbec
DESCRIPTION:Our next installment of Wine Wednesday on December 8th at 7:00 p.m. Eastern/New York time involves a discussion of wines made from Malbec\, a grape that is principally grown in Cahors in southwestern France as well as Argentina. Although genetic origins point to Burgundy\, France\, Malbec (known as Côt in southwestern France) only came into prominence in recent decades when it was catapulted to popularity by the winemakers of Argentina. \nMalbec was originally used as a blending grape in the Bordeaux region of France as one of the six allowable red grapes that could be included in a red Bordeaux blend. Malbec has recently gained popularity as a varietal produced in the area of southwestern France near Cahors. Malbec is also widely grown around the globe in recent years. \nPlease join us on Wednesday\, December 8th at 7:00 p.m. Eastern/New York time for our upcoming episode of Wine Wednesday when we will engage on Zoom to discuss this grape and its various flavor profiles as portrayed in varying terroir. Also\, please take a picture of the front and back labels of your bottle of Malbec and send those photos to WineCat@pa.net by 11 p.m. Tuesday evening for inclusion in our PowerPoint slide show next Wednesday. It adds to the fun and enjoyment!

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ Chilean Wines
DESCRIPTION:Our next and last Wine Wednesday event for calendar year 2021 will take place on December 15th at 7:00 pm Eastern Time and will deal with the topic of “Chilean Wines”. Similar to what Argentina did for Malbec and Uruguay did for Tannat\, Chile has resurrected an almost forgotten grape known as Carménère\, a grape of French origin that was facing near extinction in France. Vineyards in Chile were growing boatloads of what they thought was Merlot until 1994 when geneticists discovered that the Chilean vineyards were actually growing Carménère! Of course\, Chile is quite famous for other grape varieties\, including some fantastic Cabernet Sauvignon as well as other varietals. \nThat’s just one unusual characteristic about Chilean wines. Chile is a long and narrow country along the southwestern border of South America with valley after valley that run east to west from the Andes Mountains to the coast. Each of these valleys have distinctive terroir characteristics. And\, because Chile is walled off by the Andes (the longest continental mountain range in the world) from the rest of South America\, phylloxera has never breached that barrier into Chile. Thus\, Chilean vineyards grow their grapes on their own rootstocks instead of grafted rootstocks from North American grapes. \nPlease join us for Wine Wednesday on December 15th at 7:00 pm Eastern Time to share in the discussion about Chilean wines by jumping on the Zoom link below. Please secure a bottle of Chilean wine and please remember to send pictures of the labels from the bottle of wine you wish to feature to WineCat@pa.net by 11 PM Tuesday. Those labels will be featured in next Wednesday evening’s PowerPoint slide show. We look forward to seeing you then! \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/85651407809?pwd=TmR4UjdTK3FIbXZpT3FYcmIzNUFyQT09 \nMeeting ID: 856 5140 7809 \nPasscode: 993560 \nOne tap mobile \n+13126266799\,\,85651407809#\,\,\,\,*993560# US (Chicago) \n+16465588656\,\,85651407809#\,\,\,\,*993560# US (New York) \nDial by your location \n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago) \n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York) \n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC) \n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston) \n+1 720 707 2699 US (Denver) \n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma) \nMeeting ID: 856 5140 7809 \nPasscode: 993560 \nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kbKB6vuT7u \n

SUMMARY:Charles Smith Wines
DESCRIPTION:EVENT SOLD OUT – you may contact the Treasurers via the contact page to be placed on a waitlist should you wish to be called in final days to take any canceled reservation seats that may come available.\nCHARLES SMITH    Unique wine names.   Unique labels.  One unique winemaker                       \nCharles Smith is known for producing some pretty terrific wines out of Washington over the past 20 years.  Before settling down in Washington to make wine in the late 1990’s\, Charles moved to Denmark thinking he would find a position in the wine industry.  What he actually did in Denmark was to manage and book music groups.   While creating promotional material for the bands\, he developed his bold graphic black-and-white promotional style. \nSmith came to Walla Walla\, Washington after leaving Denmark.  With a very small budget and the generosity of the local vintners\, he created his first vintage in 2001.  He used fruit from one vintner\, crushed the grapes at another facility\, and fermented the wine at a third site. He made 330 cases of a minimally produced\, biodynamic Syrah which he sold out of the back of his van.  But what people remembered was the label – it was stamped only with a giant\, black ‘K’ on a white label.  It was easily spotted across the room but more importantly\, they didn’t forget the wine.  K Syrah. \nSmith continued to create new wines– all designed with a black-and-white label and with inventive new names.  Who doesn’t smile when you see a bottle of Velvet Devil Merlot?  Boom Boom! Syrah?  Kung Fu Girl Riesling?  \nFor our tasting we will sample six wines from the Charles Smith label (now owned by Constellation Brands) and one from the HOUSE OF SMITH Substance label. \n2019 Band of Roses: \nWe will start the evening with a cool dry Rosé made from 100% Pinot Gris \n2020 Kung Fu Girl Riesling: \nThe story goes that Charles was eating Chinese takeout and watching a fight scene in a notorious martial arts film when he had an idea: a killer white wine to be paired with Asian food. \n2018 Substance Sauvignon Blanc Sunset Vineyard: \nThe Substance label was created with the goal of creating the best value-price Cabernet Sauvignon in America.  It has expanded to include red-blends\, Merlot\, Chardonnay and this Loire-style Sauvignon Blanc. \n2016 Eve Chardonnay: \n100% Washington State Chardonnay\, producing a dry\, creamy and smooth wine. \n2019 Velvet Devil Merlot: \nWhen the movie “Sideways” created anti-Merlot sentiments\, Charles set out to rebuff the movie’s unflattering portrayal.  One taste of Velvet Devil and you’ll know he succeeded. \n 2018 Boom Boom! Syrah:  \nThis spicy Syrah is a tribute to Charles first lost love – a woman named “Boom Boom” O’Brien – and it’s one of the biggest\, boldest Syrah’s of all time. \n2016 Chateau Smith Cabernet Sauvignon: \nWhile Charles Smith Wines does not actually have a chateau\, the Chateau Smith Cabernet Sauvignon stays true to the old-world winemaking style from Bordeaux. \nJoin us on Friday\, December 17th at 7 p.m. at the Hilton Harrisburg to taste the wines of Charles Smith. \n 100% COVID 19 vaccination proof with follow-up 14-day waiting period completion is required to confirm event reservations.  All Center for Disease Control and Pennsylvania Department of Health distancing and safety precautions as well as the Hilton Harrisburg’s practices and policies will be followed as we are their guests. Tables of 4 persons each may be reserved via communication with your reservation notes\, or email to the Treasurers. \nClick here for reservations. \nMembers:  $60           Patrons:  $55         Nonmembers:  $70 \n  \n*From charlessmithwines.com and houseofsmith.com \n

SUMMARY:Champagne
DESCRIPTION:Please join us online on Sunday\, December 19th at 3:30 pm for a Virtual Wine Tasting during which we will discuss Champagne\, the region\, the wine\, and their history! This special event will be presented by the Pennsylvania Wine Society and conducted by Wine Educator Joe Via and PWS President Marty Cook. A concise list of suggested Champagnes will be listed below. You will be able to secure one or several Champagnes in advance of the program of which you can partake during the broadcast. This event will be interactive through the Chat facility during the airing of the event and then during an open discussion forum at the end of the show. \nPermit the following brief background to the program. Champagne is\, first and foremost\, a place. Europeans\, especially the French\, name their wines after places. This only adds to the confusion for Americans who do not speak French\, which is an intimidating ingredient to interpreting wine labels and appreciating the wines that bear place-names. Champagne is also a wine that is distinguished by the fact that it contains a natural effervescence (putting it within the genre of “sparkling wines”)\, as opposed to wines that do not have effervescence (known as “still wines”). Champagne has been in production for several centuries and is the result of two separate fermentations. It is the second fermentation that imbues the wine known as Champagne with a sparkle. The process of making Champagne with two fermentations is known as the Champagne Method (Méthode Champenoise in French)\, nomenclature that has been updated in recent years to “the Traditional Method” (Méthode Traditionnelle). During this presentation\, we will discuss the history\, geography\, and soil types of the Champagne region\, as well as the history and step-by-step process by which Champagne\, the wine\, is made. You will discover that\, although the finished product is generally a white wine\, Champagne is frequently made from a combination of three grapes\, two of which are “red” (which includes a spectrum of grape skin colors from red to blue to black). It is the process that is employed that achieves a clear colored wine from such grapes\, all of which will be discussed. \nThe three Champagne wines that we will feature are listed below and are available in most Pennsylvania Fine Wine & Good Spirits stores. If you are unable to secure any of these wines\, then it is suggested that you select an alternate wine for your tasting pleasure during the event\, so long as it is a sparkling wine from the Champagne Region of France\, made in the Traditional Method. \nPLCB Code #83367 – Bertrand Delespierre Enfant de la Montagne Brut Champagne Montagne de Reims 1er Cru Non-Vintage – $39.99 \n PLCB Code #39622 – Le Mesnil Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Champagne Brut NV – $39.99 \n PLCB Code #47130 – Ruinart Rose Brut NV – $74.99 \nSo\, please consider joining Joe Via and Marty Cook for this special presentation of Champagne\, presented by the Pennsylvania Wine Society on Sunday\, December 19th at 3:30 pm. We look forward to seeing you then! \nPlease use the following Zoom link to join this event: \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/83895097419?pwd=aFR4Ri9GM2dFRzR0SXBzZ05Yam5sQT09 \n Meeting ID: 838 9509 7419 \nPasscode: 282189 \nOne tap mobile \n+13017158592\,\,83895097419#\,\,\,\,*282189# US (Washington DC) \n+13126266799\,\,83895097419#\,\,\,\,*282189# US (Chicago) \nDial by your location \n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC) \n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago) \n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York) \n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma) \n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston) \n+1 720 707 2699 US (Denver) \nMeeting ID: 838 9509 7419 \nPasscode: 282189 \nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kABFyCX9r \n

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ Wines of Alsace
DESCRIPTION:We kick off a New Year of Wine Wednesday on January 5th\, 2022\, at 7:00 p.m. Eastern/New York Time with a discussion of one of my favorite wine regions\, that being the region of Alsace\, France. \nAlsace is a land of rich historic background that marries both French and German culture to present the best of two worlds. Alsace produces many incredible white wines and one allowable red wine. A cooler climate region that once resided within the boundaries of Germany\, this multi-cultural area is now part of France by virtue of the spoils of the First World War. Yet\, Alsace has a distinctively German flavor in its foods\, wines\, customs and architecture. \nThe Alsace wine region is renowned for its wonderful white wines\, such as Riesling\, Sylvaner\, Pinot Blanc\, and Gewürztraminer and its one allowable red wine\, Pinot Noir. This region is also home to many long-time wine producers that have endured through the ages in spite of international conflicts. \nPlease join us for Wine Wednesday on January 5th\, 2022\, at 7:00 p.m. Eastern/New York Time with a bottle of your favorite Alsatian wine. And\, as always\, please send photos of the front and back labels of your bottle to WineCat@pa.net by 11:00 p.m. Tuesday for inclusion in that evening’s PowerPoint slide show of featured wines that we will discuss. \nWe look forward to seeing you on January 5th\, 2022\, at 7:00 p.m. Eastern/New York Time for our first Wine Wednesday event of the New Year! \n  \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/86313576202?pwd=b0J0R2x1QUozbUtMbENsSnEyazlpQT09 \nMeeting ID: 863 1357 6202 \nPasscode: 712537 \nOne tap mobile \n+16465588656\,\,86313576202#\,\,\,\,*712537# US (New York) \n+13017158592\,\,86313576202#\,\,\,\,*712537# 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+1 720 707 2699 US (Denver) \n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma) \n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston) \nMeeting ID: 863 1357 6202 \nPasscode: 712537 \nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kcZbINb4Kw \n  \n

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday - Wines of South West France
DESCRIPTION:Our next Wine Wednesday on January 12th at 7:00 pm Eastern Time takes us to a somewhat unsung\, yet fascinating region of France known as South West France (or\, Sud-Ouest as the French call it). As the folks at Wine Folly say: \n“If you like Bordeaux but not the prices\, then the South West region of France is calling you. Many of the wines are very similar to Bordeaux in varietal\, wine making style and quality. Add some unique grapes and ‘terroir’ into the mix and this is one exciting region for wine lovers.” \nThe South West France wine region has a long history of being treated as the red-headed stepchild of the French wine scene\, and therein lies a story. As always\, it is the age-old story of money\, politics and power. But\, as a result\, this region is also something of a best kept secret when it comes to affordable yet wonderful French wines! Look for regional names on the label like Bergerac\, Montravel (dry white blends)\, Pécharment (big\, reds)\, and sweet wines from Saussignac\, Rosette and Monbazillac. \nSo\, secure a bottle of wine from the South West region of France and join us for our upcoming Wine Wednesday on January 12th at 7:00 pm Eastern Time as we explore some of the fantastic yet somewhat obscure wines of this region! And as always\, please take photos of the front and back labels of your wine and send them to WineCat@pa.net by 8 PM Tuesday for inclusion in our weekly PowerPoint slide show. Use the Zoom link shown below. We look forward to seeing you! \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/84279977510?pwd=ZHBEOWhweEFqbkpERDBYRC94SGdXZz09 \nMeeting ID: 842 7997 7510 \nPasscode: 715711 \nOne tap mobile \n+13126266799\,\,84279977510#\,\,\,\,*715711# US (Chicago) \n+16465588656\,\,84279977510#\,\,\,\,*715711# US (New York) \nDial by your location \n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago) \n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York) \n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC) \n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston) \n+1 720 707 2699 US (Denver) \n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma) \nMeeting ID: 842 7997 7510 \nPasscode: 715711 \nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kclpkiGFmC \n

SUMMARY:The Loire Valley – Jardin de la France with Kevin Ostrowski
DESCRIPTION:The Pennsylvania Wine Society series of Sunday afternoon Virtual Wine Education events returns on Sunday\, January 16th at 3:30 pm Eastern/ New York Time on Zoom! Our first presentation of the New Year will feature The Loire Valley – Jardin de la France\, hosted by PWS Member and past-presenter Kevin Ostrowski. \nIn the First Century BC\, the longest river in France\, the Loire\, was recognized by Julius Caesar as valuable real estate. Beginning in the heart of the country and extending for over 600 miles to the Atlantic Ocean\, the Loire River has provided access and transportation to its bounty throughout history. This includes the luscious wines of the region\, as well. Exploring the wine regions of the Loire\, we will see what makes each region unique unto itself. From crisp\, light classic whites to bright and clean cool climate reds\, we will sample and enjoy some wines from the Loire Valley\, the Garden of France. \nEven though many of the regions in the Loire grow and make wines from the same grapes\, such as Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Franc\, the wines are ultimately distinctive in character from region to region. Loire Valley wines are frequently known by the place names from the region in which they are produced (such as Sancerre\, Quincy\, Pouilly Fume\, Muscadet\, and Chinon)\, reflecting the characteristics of each regional terroir as well as the stylistic approach of the winemakers in those regions. Many of these Loire Valley wines are available in Pennsylvania Fine Wine & Good Spirits premium stores. We urge you to explore the availability of Loire Valley wines in the French section of your local wine store and select one or several to enjoy during this event. We will undoubtedly touch upon the wine(s) you choose and the regions in which they are produced. \nPlease join us on Sunday\, January 16th at 3:30 pm for The Loire Valley – Jardin de la France on the Zoom link shown below. We look forward to seeing you then! \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/88466962007?pwd=Um5vNENDVFdmcDk5d1lWR0VidG5YUT09 \nMeeting ID: 884 6696 2007\nPasscode: 859342\nOne tap mobile\n+13126266799\,\,88466962007#\,\,\,\,*859342# US (Chicago)\n+16465588656\,\,88466962007#\,\,\,\,*859342# US (New York) \nDial by your location\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York)\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 720 707 2699 US (Denver)\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\nMeeting ID: 884 6696 2007\nPasscode: 859342\nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kfGaF3miO

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ Wines of the Balkans
DESCRIPTION:Our next Wine Wednesday on January 19th at 7:00 p.m. Eastern/New York Time revolves around the wines of the Balkans. As wine regions go\, the Balkans comprises one that is lesser known by most\, yet possesses more ancient roots in practicing the craft of winemaking than today’s more well-known wine regions. \nThere are eleven countries that comprise the Balkans\, namely Albania\, Bosnia and Herzegovina\, Bulgaria\, Croatia\, Greece\, Kosovo\, Montenegro\, North Macedonia\, Romania\, Serbia\, and Slovenia. These countries have a rich history and winemaking tradition and may present a challenge in finding a representative example of their wines\, due to availability of wines from the Balkans in our domestic fine wine shops. Still\, there are many possibilities from which to choose\, if you do some sleuthing! I personally know that there are a number of both red and white Grecian wines available\, as well as many wines from Bosnia and Herzegovina\, Bulgaria\, Croatia\, Montenegro\, Macedonia and Romania on the shelves of local wine shops. Ask your Wine Specialist for assistance and you will be surprised at the number of Balkan wines you will find! \nSo\, please join us at the Zoom link below with a bottle of wine from the Balkans for our next Wine Wednesday on January 19th at 7:00 pm Eastern Time when we explore more about this genre of wines! And\, as always\, please send photos of the front and back labels of the bottle of wine that you plan to feature to WineCat@pa.net by 11 p.m. Tuesday evening for inclusion in Wednesday’s PowerPoint lineup of featured wines! \nWe look forward to seeing you this Wednesday at 7:00 p.m. Eastern/New York Time for this week’s episode of Wine Wednesday!  Please join us via the Zoom link below. \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/88103200571?pwd=KzlxU3AyandTMWo2NkQ3elJjdWZpUT09 \n Meeting ID: 881 0320 0571\nPasscode: 651275\nOne tap mobile\n+13126266799\,\,88103200571#\,\,\,\,*651275# US (Chicago)\n+16465588656\,\,88103200571#\,\,\,\,*651275# US (New York) \nDial by your location\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York)\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 720 707 2699 US (Denver)\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\nMeeting ID: 881 0320 0571\nPasscode: 651275\nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kb57jlFiDj \n

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ Wines of Sicily
DESCRIPTION:Our next episode of Wine Wednesday takes place on January 26th at 7:00 pm Eastern Time and features “The Wines of Sicily\,” the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea and one of the 20 regions of Italy. This island\, located at the “toe of the boot” as described by the shape of the Italian Peninsula has had a rather storied past of being overrun and occupied by invaders representing multiple cultures. The Sicilian dialect and their traditional foods reflect the multiple raiders that swept across the Sicilian landscape. This is hardly surprising\, as each of these intrusions\, in some cases\, occupied the island for centuries at a time. As a result\, Sicily has a rich and unique culture\, especially with regard to the arts\, music\, literature\, cuisine\, and architecture. \nThe terrain of inland Sicily is mostly hilly and is home to Mount Etna\, the largest active volcano in Europe. The volcanic soil in those areas of the island that have been influenced by volcanic action bodes well for vineyards and winemaking. Some ancient archeological findings testify that Sicily was one of the first Italian region to practice the art of enology. More recently\, Sicily has seen a growing interest from modern day winemakers who are strongly committed to innovating\, transforming and improving the quality of Sicilian vineyards. The current wine industry has introduced new grape varieties\, experimented with new techniques and modernized the wineries. The sun\, the land\, the hills and the sea breeze have done the rest\, providing an extraordinary variety of Sicilian wines which have taken a leading role on the international stage. \nSo\, secure a bottle of Sicilian wine and join us on Wednesday\, January 26th at 7:00 pm Eastern Time when we gather again for Wine Wednesday. As usual\, please photograph the front and back labels of your bottle and email them to WineCat@pa.net by 11 p.m. this coming Tuesday evening for inclusion in Wednesday evening’s PowerPoint presentation. We look forward to having you aboard as we share with each other our own impressions of the wines we will discuss during Wine Wednesday!

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ Wines from Cool Climate Grapes
DESCRIPTION:Many grapes are what we call “cool climate grapes.” Think Riesling\, Pinot Noir\, Chardonnay\, Sauvignon Blanc or Rkatsiteli. Also consider a number of cooler climate hybrid grapes like Seyval Blanc\, Vidal Blanc\, and Marquette. Such grapes reflect their true typicity when grown in cooler growing regions. These grapes can also grow in warmer regions; but\, the desired flavor profile will be considerably different\, and that is not a bad thing. It just yields a different outcome. \nOur next installment of Wine Wednesday on February 2nd at 7:00 pm Eastern Time features wines made from the grapes we know as “cool climate grapes.” The cold\, hard truth is that cool and cold areas are best suited for white wine production because white grapes generally ripen earlier and they are more forgiving\, flexible and adaptable in the hands of a talented winemaker to make a good wine over a wider range of maturity than would red grapes grown in the same cool or cold area. With new viticulture technology in the form of cold-hardy and disease-resistant hybrid grape varieties\, the possibility of growing fine wines has expanded into cool and cold areas that were previously thought to be inaccessible to wine production. \nSo\, pick up a bottle of your favorite cooler or even colder climate wine made from cool climate grapes and join us for Wine Wednesday on February 2nd at 7:00 pm Eastern Time and share your thoughts about your wine with us! And\, as usual\, take photos of your bottle’s front and back labels and email them to WineCat@pa.net by 11 PM Tuesday for inclusion in our weekly PowerPoint presentation. \nNo reservations needed – just join us close to 7 PM Wednesday Eastern/New York time via the Zoom link below.   We look forward to seeing you then! \n  \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/89067997194?pwd=Wm53T21KTE0wNDh2Ymo4TUh2dWtIZz09 \nMeeting ID: 890 6799 7194 \nPasscode: 229114 \nOne tap mobile \n+13017158592\,\,89067997194#\,\,\,\,*229114# US (Washington DC) \n+13126266799\,\,89067997194#\,\,\,\,*229114# US (Chicago) \nDial by your location \n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC) \n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago) \n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York) \n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma) \n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston) \n+1 720 707 2699 US (Denver) \nMeeting ID: 890 6799 7194 \nPasscode: 229114 \nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kYV7STwlM

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ Wines from Indigenous Grapes
DESCRIPTION:Our next Wine Wednesday episode on February 9th at 7:00 pm Eastern/New York time is “Wines from Indigenous Grapes.” This topic almost screams “Italy!” The Italian peninsula is home to nearly 25% of the world’s 1\,200+ recognized wine grape varieties. But\, many other wine regions and countries can also claim a number of wine grapes as indigenous to their wine growing regions. Determining a grape variety’s place of origin has become far easier in light of the modern-day work of geneticists in the field of ampelography\, which is the science concerned with the identification and classification of grapevines. So\, do your research\, because a Tanat from Uruguay is not an example of an indigenous grape. Neither is Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley an example of an indigenous grape. Nor is Sauvignon Blanc indigenous to New Zealand. This is an exercise in finding the roots of the varietal that you are drinking! \nPlease join us this week for Wine Wednesday on February 9th at 7:00 pm Eastern/New York time when we explore the genealogy\, so to speak\, of your favorite varietal! And\, as we do every week\, send photos of the front and back of your wine bottle labels to WineCat@pa.net by 11 pm Tuesday for inclusion in this week’s PowerPoint slide show\, which is when you will have your 3 minutes of fame as you feature your chosen indigenous varietal! We look forward to seeing you then! \nNo reservation needed – simply join us via the Zoom link below close to 7pm Wednesday evening. \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/88095815870?pwd=dTdQT0kwQWovcWp6Rjc4RjhSWXdOZz09 \n Meeting ID: 880 9581 5870\nPasscode: 551519\nOne tap mobile\n+13126266799\,\,88095815870#\,\,\,\,*551519# US (Chicago)\n+16465588656\,\,88095815870#\,\,\,\,*551519# US (New York) \nDial by your location\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York)\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 720 707 2699 US (Denver)\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\nMeeting ID: 880 9581 5870\nPasscode: 551519\nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/keisFJJuuB

SUMMARY:Château Maris Wines from the Cordier Portfolio
DESCRIPTION:Please join Marty Cook\, PWS President\, and our guest Gregg Mutschler\, Director of National Distribution for Cordier USA on Sunday\, February 13\, 2022\, at 3:30 p.m. Eastern time\, to enjoy wines from the Languedoc region of France.   Cordier USA is the U.S based importer of global wine producer Cordier by Invivo.  Cordier USA’s core business is sustainable and family-owned French vineyards.  Their vertically integrated global wine sourcing\, as well as sales and marketing expertise\, provide unique “Vineyard to Market” wine solutions.  The close relationships they maintain with their producers\, distributors\, retailers and consumers allows Cordier USA to offer the finest products\, in line with customer expectations. \nCordier’s portfolio producer chosen for this event is Château Maris.  Perhaps the world’s greenest wine project\, Château Maris is located in the heart of the Languedoc\, where the Mediterranean Sea and the Pyrenees mountains come together.  Nestled in the foothills of the Black Mountains\, Maris is a Certified Biodyvin\, Demeter\, Biodynamic 120-acre estate that uses only native yeast\, bottles without fining or filtering\, and plows with Percheron horses.  It has built the world’s first and only hemp cellar: a sustainable\, recyclable\, plant-based building; completely biodegradable\, self-sufficient in energy\, and carbon negative. \nMaris’ winemaker and owner\, Robert Eden is the nephew of former UK Prime Minister Sir Anthony Eden\, and a direct descendant of Lord Baltimore. He started his career rather early by getting expelled from school for illegally brewing beer in his dorm.   Because (or\, thanks to) this\, his father shipped him off to Australia where he found himself at the age of 17 pruning vines in the Barossa. After a stint in Tuscany and many years working with Becky Wasserman in Burgundy\, he purchased Château Maris in 1998.   Robert is a recognized authority on Organic and Biodynamic viticulture\, giving lectures on the need to reduce the negative impact on the environment from non-sustainable farming.  He was one of three winemakers invited to participate to the COP21 Climate Change Conference in Paris in 2015.  Wine Enthusiast reported\, “There are organic\, sustainable and environmentally minded winemakers\, and then there’s Robert Eden.  No one in France can compete.”    \nEvery label bearing Maris’ name is Certified Organic at a minimum\, low sulfites (under 100 ppm)\, chemical free\, and has no additives.  Maris is also the first and only B-Corp Certified European winery\, one of the most rigorous sustainability and social responsibility certifications in the world.  Maris is a philosophy come to life with straightforward preparations yielding complex wines. The vineyard areas are alluvial soils – a mix of schist\, sandstone\, quartz and limestone.  This makes for a varied terroir that allows each grape to best express itself.  The winemaking uses all-indigenous yeasts and concrete tanks are often used for fermentation.  Robert Eden’s wines have been described as “a testament to the practices of letting the land speak through the vines\, and letting the grapes express the land”.   \nFeatured wines for our event include an elegant\, mouth filling Vermentino; a Syrah-Grenache-Mourvèdre blend with delicious\, supple\, bright red-fruit flavors; and a full-bodied Syrah-Grenache blend showcasing silky tannins and savory dark fruit.   We look forward to hearing more about and tasting these wines with you! \nWine Ordering:  Order early to receive your wines prior to the event.  (Also consider this week’s temperatures are forecast to be milder for shipping.)  You may order and ship wines through Wine.com.  Links to each of the specific wines’ pages on the Wine.com website follow below.  Click a link\, place the wine in your cart\, and continue with the next wine.   I completed my order in less than 10 minutes.   If you’re new to Wine.com\, some first-time discounts are often offered\, so be sure to take advantage of those. \nHere are the links to each wine on Wine.com: \nhttps://www.wine.com/product/chateau-maris-la-touge-2018/757090 \nhttps://www.wine.com/product/chateau-maris-vermentino-2019/638651 \nhttps://www.wine.com/product/chateau-maris-zulu-2019/707665 \n  \nHow to join us:   No reservation needed.   Simply grab your wines and join us via the Zoom link below close to 3:30 p.m. Eastern/New York time on Sunday\, February 13; sit back and enjoy! \n https://us06web.zoom.us/j/83123035541?pwd=K05sUDVyUmVMZG1IMEZ3QjM4dzd5UT09 \nMeeting ID: 831 2303 5541 \nPasscode: 442080 \nOne tap mobile \n+13126266799\,\,83123035541#\,\,\,\,*442080# US (Chicago) \n+16465588656\,\,83123035541#\,\,\,\,*442080# US (New York) \nDial by your location \n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago) \n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York) \n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC) \n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston) \n+1 720 707 2699 US (Denver) \n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma) \nMeeting ID: 831 2303 5541 \nPasscode: 442080 \nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kcgesW5UAY

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ Piemonte\, Italy
DESCRIPTION:This week’s Wine Wednesday episode on February 16th at 7:00 p.m. Eastern focuses on one of my most favorite wine regions in the whole world\, i.e. that of Piemonte (Italy). This region is in the northwest of Italy and is bordered on the western side by a mountain range that separates Italy and France. It is also the homeland of my maternal ancestors\, many of whom were from Asti and the agrarian towns and villages to the southeast of Asti. When my grandpap told me that he grew up on a farm\, I asked him what they grew. His answer was\, “Grapes!” \nIt is difficult for me to pin down my favorite wines from Piemonte. Owing to the influence of the Romans\, roughly 25% of the world’s recognized wine grape varieties are indigenous to Italy. Thus\, no matter where you go in Italy\, you will find local wine grapes growing everywhere! This translates into endless wine varietals. Piemonte is no slouch when it comes to grape varieties and wine varietals.

SUMMARY:Godforsaken Grapes II ~ Wines of Lesser-Known Grapes  
DESCRIPTION:Preparing for this event has been a lot of fun. I began selecting and setting aside wines in anticipation of staging          Godforsaken Grapes II almost immediately after the first Godforsaken Grapes event concluded on February 18th of 2020. That was before the shutdown in March 2020\, which seems like a million years ago. It has been an especially long time because the pandemic forced us to postpone plans for a Godforsaken Grapes event in February 2021. \nTo refresh your collective memory\, allow me to make a brief explanation of the premise for this upcoming event. It is based on Jason Wilson’s book “Godforsaken Grapes”\, in which he chronicles a two-year effort to track down wines from the world over that are made from lesser known\, rare\, and sometimes nearly extinct grape varieties. Many of the wines are varietals\, i.e.\, wines named after the grape variety. So\, the name of the grape says it all.    It’s all about the grapes! \nIn the intervening two years since February 2020\, I collected nearly thirty prospective wines from which to assemble this year’s program. My co-host Joe Via and I got together several Saturdays ago and set about the task of determining which eleven wines we would present to our audience. I had already whittled down the field of possibilities to eighteen wines before Joe and I convened. \nI arrived at Joe’s home in mid-morning\, and we set about our task with gusto! What you may not realize is the difficulty of the task with which we were faced. Perhaps the best way to explain this is to tell you the names of the delicious wines that were runners-up to the eleven finalists. The wines that did not make the cut: \nAligote (White) France – Burgundy’s “other” white grape. \nGros Manseng (White) France – A delightful South France variety. \nMarselan (Red) France –A fuller-bodied French red with notes of dark cherry. \nPais (Red) Chile – One of two Pais we considered (also known as the Mission grape). \nRkatsiteli (White) Georgia – An ancient and thoroughly delicious cold-climate grape). \nScheurebe (White) Germany – It’s not all about Riesling in Germany! \nVernaccia (White) Italy – Another ancient grape and a rare Tuscan white. \n  \nThis was a painful process of elimination\, but we were very pleased with the prospects of the eleven finalists! So\, beginning with our warmup wine and then following through with five whites and five reds\, our field for Godforsaken Grapes II on Friday\, February 18th is as follows: \nGlera – (White) Sparkling — From northeastern Italy; grape used to make Prosecco. \nCortese – (White) Italy – Fruity on the nose\, minerality on the palate. \nFalanghina – (White) Italy – “Yumminess”\, ripeness\, flavor of the grape shows through. \nFurmint – (White) Hungary – Simply outstanding! Very subtly oaked. \nRotgipfler – (White) Austria – Organic\, spicy nose\, crisp\, fruity. \nSauvignonasse – (White) Slovenia – A French grape known as Sauvignon Vert. \nAglianico – (Red) Italy – A big wine with good fruit and tannins. \nLagrein – (Red) Italy – Medium to full bodied\, rich and earthy. \nPais – (Red) Chile – The Pais we liked the best; a lighter red with easy drinkability. \nSchiava – (Red) Italy – A totally balanced\, smooth medium to full-bodied red. \nTannat – (Red) Uruguay – Another French grape from South France that excels in Uruguay. \nYou may notice that six of our eleven grapes are from Italy.  This should not be much of a secret\, as literally 25% of the world’s recognized wine grapes are indigenous to Italy.  This is primarily due to the Romans’ influence and their love of wines of every type. \nI must hasten to add that we will have door prizes again during this sequel of Godforsaken Grapes; but\, this time\, we will be giving away wines!  Those wonderful wines that didn’t make the cut… well\, we want you to experience them\, even though they are not part of the evening’s package.  So\, every attendee will leave with a bottle of delicious wine! \nPlan to attend this event\, folks! If you were at the first Godforsaken Grapes in February 2020\, then you know you will have a great time!  My co-host and good friend Joe Via will be at the top of his game and we cannot wait to introduce you to eleven wines made from grapes that you may never have tasted before!  So\, join us to experience and savor these wines and learn about the grapes behind them! \nReservations for this event can be made online on the Pennsylvania Wine Society website at pawinesociety.org   But don’t wait! Seating is capped at 48 attendees and seating is at a premium! Seating will also be at 4-top tables with adequate social distancing between tables. \n100% complete COVID 19 vaccination proof is required to confirm event reservations.  All Center for Disease Control and Pennsylvania Department of Health distancing and safety precautions as well as the Hilton Harrisburg’s practices and policies will be followed as we are their guests. Tables of 4 persons each may be reserved via communication with your reservation notes\, or e-mail to the Treasurers. \nThis event takes place at the Hilton Harrisburg at 1 North Second Street\, Harrisburg\, PA on Friday evening\, February 18th at 7:00 p.m. EST.  Indoor parking is available and preferred at the Walnut Street Parking Garage at a discounted price for all event attendees by having the hotel front desk personnel stamp your parking ticket.  Please join us!   Click here for reservations. \nMembers:  $50              Patrons:  $45              Nonmembers:  $60 \n

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ The Veneto Region of Italy
DESCRIPTION:Our topic for Wine Wednesday on February 23rd at 7:00 pm Eastern time examines the wines of Veneto\, Italy. This region is in the northeastern corner of “the boot” that describes the peninsula that is Italy. It is generally a cooler climate for growing grapes. The Veneto region produces more whites than reds under the DOC designation and is notably home to the Prosecco and Soave wines. However\, continued recognition for other wines from the region\, such as Valpolicella\, Amarone\, Soave and Bardolino\, help keep Veneto in the spotlight. \nThe red wines of Veneto are also identified with several techniques which are used to increase body\, structure and intensity to various of the wines. Such processes as Ripasso and Appassimento yield stunning results that we will discuss this week. \nSo\, secure a bottle of wine from this region and join us for Wine Wednesday on February 23rd at 7:00 pm Eastern time to learn “the rest of the story.” And\, as always\, please take photos of the front and back labels of your bottle and email them to WineCat@pa.net by 11 p.m. Tuesday for inclusion in our PowerPoint slide presentation. We look forward to seeing you! \nNo reservations needed – simply send your label photos and join us via the Zoom link below close to 7 p.m. Eastern/New York time Wednesday. \n  \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/82227400122?pwd=a0QyUHFVSkZMUWhkL2pJM0h5K0V5Zz09 \nMeeting ID: 822 2740 0122\nPasscode: 083578\nOne tap mobile\n+13017158592\,\,82227400122#\,\,\,\,*083578# US (Washington DC)\n+13126266799\,\,82227400122#\,\,\,\,*083578# US (Chicago) \nDial by your location\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York)\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 720 707 2699 US (Denver)\nMeeting ID: 822 2740 0122\nPasscode: 083578\nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kbiVFlUjxa

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ The Rioja Region of Spain
DESCRIPTION:Our next installment of Wine Wednesday on March 9th at 7:00 pm Eastern Time embraces the wines that emanate from the Rioja region of Spain. The Rioja (phonetic spelling RREE’-OH’-hah) is the oldest Designation of Origin in Spain (1925) and the first to earn Calificada status (1991). A broad yet landlocked geographic expanse stretching from west to east across the northcentral reaches of Spain\, the Rioja is really three subregions representing three distinct terroir. Rioja is perhaps the most recognized Spanish wine region among Americans and is best known for berry-scented\, barrel-aged red wines made from Tempranillo and Garnacha. It is arguably Spain’s top wine region. It is certainly the most famous\, rivaled only by Jerez. There are so many other noteworthy Spanish wine regions\, but we begin with Rioja\, which requires much exploration before we move on to other Spanish wine regions later this year. So\, enjoy Rioja while we linger in it for now! \nSo\, please secure a bottle of wine from the Rioja region and join us on Wednesday\, March 9th at 7:00 pm Eastern Time for this week’s iteration of Wine Wednesday! And\, please remember to send pictures of your wine bottle’s front and back labels to WineCat@pa.net for inclusion in this coming week’s PowerPoint slide presentation. Please do so no later than Tuesday evening\, March 8th. \nWe look forward to seeing you this Wednesday on March 9th at 7:00 pm Eastern Time for Wine Wednesday! \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/85241909890?pwd=eVl3MW8rVnBSamhZenhKbDhPUFNJZz09 \nMeeting ID: 852 4190 9890\nPasscode: 473732\nOne tap mobile\n+16465588656\,\,85241909890#\,\,\,\,*473732# US (New York)\n+13017158592\,\,85241909890#\,\,\,\,*473732# 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+1 720 707 2699 US (Denver)\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\nMeeting ID: 852 4190 9890\nPasscode: 473732\nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kef5JnobY4

SUMMARY:Dr. Konstantin Frank Winery and the Eastern American Vinifera Revolution   
DESCRIPTION:On Friday\, March 11th at 7:00 pm Eastern Time at the Hilton Harrisburg\, the Pennsylvania Wine Society we will host a pandemically-postponed wine tasting event featuring the wines of Dr. Konstantin Frank Winery\, Keuka Lake\, Finger Lakes\, NY. Originally scheduled for March 2020\, we have carried this event on our books for what will be two full years! But\, finally\, the PWS is delighted to announce that we have been able to maintain the quoted prices from two years ago\, in spite of rising costs. Seating has been filling up rapidly and we urge that reservations be made soon to assure a spot! \nBy way of some background\, Dr. Konstantin Frank and his family immigrated to the United States in 1951 from Ukraine\, bringing with him decades of knowledge and experience growing vinifera grapes. He arrived in the Finger Lakes to take a position with the New York State Agricultural Experiment Station in 1952. When he questioned the scientists why vinifera grapes were not being gown\, he was informed of the long-held North American belief at that time that it was just too cold to grow vinifera grapes in the Finger Lakes. But\, Dr. Frank knew differently\, having grown thousands of acres of vinifera grapes in the very cold climate of The Ukraine. \nIn 1958\, Dr. Frank purchased 188 acres on the western shore of Lake Keuka for $6\,000. It was here that he successfully planted the first vinifera vines in the Eastern United States. Many of those Riesling\, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vines are still in production today and represent some of the oldest vines in America. \nMeaghan Frank\, Dr. Frank’s great-granddaughter\, will join us on Friday\, March 11th via Zoom to introduce the event and share the history of her fascinating great-grandfather\, her family\, and their winery. \nMark Veraguth\, Dr. Frank Winery Head Winemaker\, has selected 9 wines for us to taste. He will be joining us in person for this event to guide us through the tasting of each wine and share his insights into their creation. The list of wines Mark has chosen for us is sure to please and includes: \nBrut 2018 – Our “warm up wine” for the evening. Sophisticated and elegant\, the aromas jump out of the glass expressing baked red apple\, ginger\, lemon curd\, wildflowers\, apricot\, and biscuit notes. Bright lemon-driven acidity and very fine mousse leave a creamy mouthfeel with exquisite length. Perfect for celebrations and special occasions. Pair with oysters\, lobster\, smoked salmon\, fried foods\, egg dishes\, sushi\, popcorn\, or seafood dishes. \nGruner Veltliner 2020 – Lime and green apple are held in sleek suspension by a stony minerality. With touches of pepper on the finish\, it’s full in the mouth and quite powerful. It succeeds as it is very expressive while maintaining its focus and precision. Pair with Asparagus (Grilled)\, Cheese (Blue\, Rich or Stinky)\, Pork (Grilled\, Fried)\, Scallops (Sauteed)\, Sushi\, Thai Cuisine. \nRkatsiteli 2021 – Elegant\, aromatic\, and tropical with apricot\, passion fruit\, pineapple\, and honeydew with undertones of ginger\, white pepper\, and a touch of grassiness. A great alternative for Sauvignon Blanc drinkers. Pair with Olives\, Goat Cheeses\, Sushi\, Seafood\, Salads (Citrus\, Vinaigrette)\, Grilled White Meats\, BBQ. \nDry Rosé 2021 – This vibrant pink rosé is energetic with fresh strawberries\, passion fruit\, hibiscus\, orange and plums. The freshness from the Blaufränkisch is matched with a deep texture and red fruits from the Merlot and Cabernets\, producing a wine that can stand up to fattier dishes. Pair with Charcuterie\, White Fish (Grilled)\, Pork (Grilled)\, Salads\, Shrimp (Grilled)\, Sausage (Grilled)\, Grillable foods like Hamburgers and Hotdogs. \nDry Riesling 2020 – Ripe and tropical\, harmonizing fresh lime juice\, fresh citrus and petrol stoniness from the Keuka vineyards with cantaloupe and tangerine from the Seneca vineyards. Behind the zingy freshness are a rich body and a discreet creaminess which form a well-balanced union ideal for long-term aging. Pair with Soft Cheeses\, Chicken\, White Fish\, Salad (Green Fruits\, Seafood)\, Green Vegetable Dishes\, Sushi. \nSemi-dry Riesling 2020 – Delicate at first then tropically ripe\, brimming with apricot\, nectarine and a touch of pineapple. Lemon citrus and acacia blossom balance the sweetness effortlessly. Pair with Middle Eastern\, Moroccan\, Thai\, and Asian cuisines. Pairs well with Spicy and Aromatic Ingredients like Pepper\, Ginger\, Curry\, Sesame\, and Soy. Spicy BBQ and Wings. \nBlaufrankish 2019 – Leading with fresh plums and blueberries with vivid violet scents\, the wine evolves from its bright and fruity core to a spicy richness on the palate. Smoked Sausage\, Spaetzle\, Tomato-based sauces\, Hard Cheeses\, Lighter Meats like Veal\, Pork\, and Lamb. \nCabernet Franc 2019 – Juicy and generous\, spiced black cherry aromas are lifted with earthiness and cedar. Powerful and elegant simultaneously\, the dark currants and plum flavors are firm with polished tannins and vibrant acidity. Pan-Seared Duck Breast\, Grilled Lamb\, Seared Filet Mignon\, Steak Frites\, Eggplant Dishes\, Bell Peppers\, StrongFlavored Cheeses\, Roasted Vegetables. \nSaperavi 2019 – Vibrant violet in color with pronounced notes of plum\, black cherry\, earth\, cedar\, and smoke. Full-bodied with polished tannins. Juicy acidity lifts the flavors on the long finish. \n  \nProof of COVID-19 vaccination is required by all attendees to confirm event reservations. All CDC and PA Department of Health social distancing precautions as well as the Harrisburg Hilton’s safety precautions and policies will be followed. Seating will be limited to 4 people per table. If you wish to reserve a table for 4\, you may do so in the notes section of your online reservation or by emailing asst-treasurer@pawinesociety.org. \nThis event takes place at the Hilton Harrisburg at 1 N. Second Street\, Harrisburg\, PA on Friday\, March 11th at 7:00 pm Eastern Time. Indoor parking is available and preferred at the Walnut Street Parking Garage at a heavily discounted price for all event attendees by having the hotel front desk personnel stamp your parking ticket. \nOnline reservations may be purchased at pawinesocciety.org.

SUMMARY:Winemaking for Mere Mortals!
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday\, March 13th at 3:30 pm Eastern (New York) Time\, the Pennsylvania Wine Society will feature Virtual Wine Education event on winemaking. But this segment will be a departure from the programs you have come to know from the PWS. It will be a one-hour overview of winemaking at home\, as performed by award-winning amateur winemaker Kevin Donnelly. \nIt discusses grape varietals\, fruit wine (“country wine”) options\, the equipment needed\, the basic chemistry involved\, and winemaking procedures. During this segment\, Kevin will demonstrate how people at home can emulate the “big guys” at commercial wineries\, resulting in high quality wines that are often as good as\, or even superior to\, the quality of commercial wines. \nKevin will discuss costs involved\, starting as low as $300\, and how you can grow your hobby as your interest and proficiency grows. \nThis is a great introduction to a centuries old tradition that will show you how you can get involved in becoming a bona fide Winemaker of quality wines that you would be proud to serve to your family and friends! \nKevin Donnelly has been a home winemaker since 2003\, and consistently wines multiple awards from various Home Wine Competitions\, including 2018 Best of Show “Golden Bear” award from the California State Fair. Kevin has been the chairman of the OC Fair’s Home Wine Competition for five years and continues as a board member of the Orange County Wine Society in California. \nPlease join us on Sunday\, March 13th at 3:30 pm Eastern (New York) Time to take in this feature. It is sure to be enjoyable and informative! \nNo reservations needed.   You can join in on the Zoom link shown below. \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/83255848103?pwd=U1UrdGh6dzBBWVkyUU1DY1lPOTkrUT09 \nMeeting ID: 832 5584 8103\nPasscode: 345350\nOne tap mobile\n+13126266799\,\,83255848103#\,\,\,\,*345350# US (Chicago)\n+16465588656\,\,83255848103#\,\,\,\,*345350# US (New York) \nDial by your location\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York)\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 720 707 2699 US (Denver)\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\nMeeting ID: 832 5584 8103\nPasscode: 345350\nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kRPYgd55H \n

SUMMARY:Touring Austria’s Wines **SOLD OUT**
DESCRIPTION:This EVENT is SOLD OUT.   If you’d like to join a Wait List to be called in case of cancellations – please contact the Treasurers.\nIs there anything that overwhelms with a sensation of FRESH better than the first nose of a good Austrian Grüner Veltliner in your glass?   I think not.  Lots of lovely crisp whites out there – but oh my – this is spectacular in a glass.  And it reminded me that PWS hasn’t featured Austrian wines in some time.  And so here it is – our April 1st absolutely not foolish event!  Austrian wines—both white and red—are some of the best kept secrets for springtime or anytime sipping. \nWe invite you to ‘embrace the umlaut’ and join us April 1\, at the Hilton Harrisburg\, 7 p.m. for an introductory tour of some of the wine world’s greatest cool-climate wines.  Austrian wines are vibrant with a range of flavors to match our favorite foods of the season\, from schnitzel to sushi. Austria is the world leader in organic farming. Family farms still dominate the winemaking scene\, making quality the focus rather than mass production. Our tour guide for the evening is Mariel Wega from Skurnik Wines & Spirits\, an importer and distributor headquartered in New York City whose goal is to search the globe to assemble the finest portfolio of estate-bottled wines and spirits available.  Mariel has worked in the restaurant and wine industry for the better part of the last two decades as a sommelier\, recommending wines in some of Philadelphia’s top restaurants for over ten years and was named one of Wine Enthusiast’s Best New Sommeliers of 2016.  Mariel has chosen the ten wines listed below for us to enjoy; all of which will be coded in the PLCB system for your purchase of your favorites following the event.   We will pair these with cheeses\, baguettes\, and small plates of Kasesspatzle and Goulash-Braised Beef prepared by Hilton Chef Bianco. \nNigl Sekt Rose 2016  Kremstal.   Austria’s answer to Champagne. Delicate and racy sparkling rose with strawberries and cream on the palate. \nGobelsburg Grüner Veltliner ‘Schlosskellerei’ 2020  Kamptal.  From some of the oldest documented vineyards in the Kamptal\, dating back to 1171. Extremely fragrant with notes of juicy mirabelle plum. Crisp\, green\, refreshing. \nHiedler ‘Langenlois’ Riesling Kamptal DAC 2020  Kamptal.  An excellent\, dry village-level Riesling from the Hiedler family\, a founding member of the ÖTW and one of the drivers of Austria’s vineyard classification since 1992. \nNikolaihof Grüner Veltliner ‘Zwickl’ 2020  Wachau.  Nikolaihof holds some of the oldest known vineyards in Europe with sites such as “im Weingebirge” being mentioned as far back as 470AD. This is a fun\, playful unfiltered Grüner. \nHeidi Schröck & Söhne Gelber Muskateller 2020  Rüst.  An aromatic white that will put a smile on your face from Heidi Schrock\, one of the few women to be awarded Falstaff Vintner of the year. White flowers\, lemon verbena\, chamomile and herbs. \nBründlmayer Riesling ‘Zöbinger Heiligenstein’ Erste Lage 2020  Kamptal.  A top site for Riesling on 250 million-year-old Permian desert sandstone with feldspar (volcanic) and siltstone. Bründlmayer is arguably one of the best Austrian winemakers of the last 25 years. \nHirsch Grüner Veltliner ‘Ried Kammern Gaisberg’ Erste Lage 2019  Kamptal. From the highly regarded “Gaisberg” premier cru vineyard\, this wine is herbal with a stunning mouth feel that is creamy yet invigorating with a ton of mineral freshness. \nGlatzer Blaufränkisch 2018  Carnuntum.  Lip-smacking juiciness\, peppers and blackberries; this is exactly what basic Blaufränkisch should be\, and there couldn’t be a better introduction to this fascinating variety. \nBerger Zweigelt 2020  Kremstal.  One of the best values in Austria: juicy and bright\, loaded with crunchy red berry fruit\, tart cherry\, and cranberry. \nSattler St Laurent 2020 Burgenland.  This traditional Austrian variety is an offspring of Pinot Noir. Silky with spicy dark cherry fruit. \nHeidi Schröck Beerenauslese 2020  Rüst.  A very special and elegant sweet wine made from selected berries from various vineyards on the estate. Amber colored with flavors of apricot\, orange\, and passion fruit\, a complex and concentrated beauty. \nThis is a higher priced event due to the unique opportunity to taste Austrian wines not previously available in Pennsylvania stores\, and pair them with Austrian-style foods while learning more about cool-climate grape growing and winemaking.  Space is limited by Hilton space\, safe distancing\, and wine availability; so plan now to join us at 7 p.m. Friday\, April 1st at the Hilton Harrisburg for this fun and educational tour.  It will be a great way to kick off spring in Pennsylvania! \n100% current\, complete COVID 19 vaccination proof is required to confirm event reservations.  All Center for Disease Control and Pennsylvania Department of Health distancing and safety precautions as well as the Hilton Harrisburg’s practices and policies will be followed as we are their guests.  Tables of four persons each may be reserved via communication with your reservation notes\, or an e-mail to the Treasurers.  Click here to reserve seats online.  We look forward to sharing these wines and food with you! \nMembers:  $95         Patrons:  $90        Nonmembers:  $105 \n  \n

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ Wines from the State of New York

SUMMARY:Wines of South West France
DESCRIPTION:Our next Virtual Wine Education event takes place on Sunday\, April 10th at 3:30 pm Eastern on Zoom (link shown below). On the French side of the Pyrenees lies Gascony – the land of many tribes. That land would become known as a quality wine producing region. With Bordeaux to its North\, the Bordelaise had passed regulations known as ‘Police de Vin’ ensuring its Bordeaux region wines preferentially made it to market before those of South West France and it seems that\, to this day\, while those rules are long past\, we tend to forget about the wine growing regions of Irouleguy\, Bearn\, Madiran\, Juracon\, Cahors and Gaillac. As an aside you may recognize the region’s more famous brandy – Armagnac. We will take a look at the history and wines of these less-famous areas that call themselves “the quiet Southern neighbors of Bordeaux.” \nJoin us on Sunday\, April 10th at 3:30 pm Eastern on Zoom (link shown below) with a bottle of wine from any of the aforementioned areas of South West France as we explore an ancient winemaking region where wines are of excellent quality\, though lesser-known and somewhat underappreciated. \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/88502255986?pwd=NS9oS0FJalV0UnZFeWt5V3JoR2twdz09 \nMeeting ID: 885 0225 5986\nPasscode: 135230\nOne tap mobile\n+16465588656\,\,88502255986#\,\,\,\,*135230# US (New York)\n+13017158592\,\,88502255986#\,\,\,\,*135230# 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+1 720 707 2699 US (Denver)\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\nMeeting ID: 885 0225 5986\nPasscode: 135230\nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kcacOXC3wS

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ Pennsylvania and Other Eastern American Wines
DESCRIPTION:Our next Wine Wednesday offering on April 13th at 7:00 pm Eastern will feature Pennsylvania and other Eastern American wines. Some of us may crinkle their noses when they think about wines made in the Commonwealth or other States east of the West Coast\, but there are enough great wine producers around the Pennsylvania Wine Society’s home-based State and the other many contiguous Eastern American States that I am sure we all have something we enjoy at home or when we are out and about at an event. Tell us where you go and what you drink when you consume Pennsylvania and other Eastern American wines! \nSo\, grab a bottle of Pennsylvania or Eastern American wine and join us on Wednesday\, April 13th at 7:00 pm Eastern for Wine Wednesday!
