June 13 @ 7:00 pm - 9:30 pm
TBD
Journey to the lands down under in June with noted wine educator, Kevin Ostrowski, as we explore the wines of Australia and New Zealand on Friday, June 13, 7:00 p.m. at the Hilton Harrisburg.
If you think that Australia only produces bold and spicy Shiraz or New Zealand crisp and refreshing Sauvignon Blancs, then join us to learn more about the variety and excellence of the wine offerings from these two countries. Australia’s Hunter Valley is known for its production of Semillon, a grape originally from Bordeaux but that truly shines in the wines produced in this region. New Zealand’s Pinot Noirs can rival those of Oregon and, dare we say it, maybe even Burgundy! Award-winning Chardonnays and Rieslings can also be found down under. We may even get to taste a wine from the island of Tasmania. The final wines haven’t been set, but we’re enjoying the exploration of the variety the region has to offer.
We don’t think there is a better way to spend a Friday the 13th than with fellow wine lovers learning more about the wines from Oceania. Check back in early May for more information!
