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
DESCRIPTION:New York State brought recognition and established prominence to New York State as a winemaking region as early as the 1930’s and has since driven a stake in the ground as a world-class producer of (among other varieties) Riesling! Tell us about some of your favorite New York State wines and/or wine regions\, from the Finger Lakes to the Hudson Valley and all points in between! \nAll details for each individual event are posted here closer to the actual event and distributed to PWS members via e-mail in advance of the event each week. \nPlease check back here the week of the event for Zoom connection information. \nMost important is to reserve your Wednesday evenings now for this fun and interesting exploration of wine!

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! As usual\, send a photo of the front and back label of your bottle to WineCat@pa.net by Tuesday evening at the latest for inclusion in our weekly PowerPoint slide presentation. We look forward to seeing you then! \nNo reservations needed – simply send your labels by Tuesday evening and join via the Zoom link below close to 7 pm Eastern/New York time on Wednesday.\ \n  \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/89574951827?pwd=bkRRV2Q3TWtZNE9TWjl4bWJIYkYzQT09 \nMeeting ID: 895 7495 1827\nPasscode: 657194 \nOne tap mobile\n+13126266799\,\,89574951827#\,\,\,\,*657194# US (Chicago)\n+16465588656\,\,89574951827#\,\,\,\,*657194# 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: 895 7495 1827\nPasscode: 657194\nFind your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kdfnOhMby6

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ Wines from any State or Province not Previously Featured
DESCRIPTION:Our next Wine Wednesday offering on April 20th at 7:00 pm Eastern will feature wines from any North American State or Province not previously featured.

So\, pick one!  We know there are tasty wines being produced in States like Virginia\, New Mexico\, Texas\, Michigan\, New Jersey\, Ohio\, Missouri\, and several Canadian Provinces. Let’s see who can send off our tour of the US with a surprising offering from a State or Province heretofore not featured! \nTo refresh your recall – we’ve already featured CA\, NY\, OR\, PA\, and WA – so those are the only areas out of bounds this week.   So\, grab a bottle of North American wine and join us on Wednesday\, April 20th at 7:00 pm Eastern for Wine Wednesday!

SUMMARY:Wine Wednesday ~ Wines from Western Europe 
DESCRIPTION:Our next Wine Wednesday offering on April 27th at 7:00 pm Eastern will feature Wines from Western Europe. After our foray into Eastern American wines and wines from other random North American States and Provinces\, we all deserve a trip across the pond for one of our favorite wines from the Old World.
