A Night of Argentinean Delights: Wine Tasting Party
$50 per adult for up to 20 people
Kiss. Taste.
Quaff. Enjoy. Take a moment from
your hectic day and pause for a siesta among Argentinean food and wine - a
casual evening of good company and good wine. This one starts with a flight of charcuterie and
cheese, followed by empanadas and surrounded at all times by the different
wine styles, growers and grapes of Argentina. Wines will tour the entire country including some of
the best and most unique winemakers and regions. Ranging from the light Torrantes grape from the North in
Salta to the classic Malbecs of Lujon de Cuyo in the wine region of Mendoza in
the shadow of the Andes tallest peak, Aconcagua. We will also sample the neighboring valley of Valle de Uco,
which is challenging the supremacy of its neighbor and the source of some of
Argentina’s most exciting wines. To sit around all evening and snack on good
ham, cheese and empanadas and drink bottle after bottle of meaty, earthy and
yes, tasty wines, how can you beat it?
