[Christina E]

Happy New Year! Here's the 2016 Schedule. There will likely be a meeting invite for a vertical dinner in the next month or two, so keep an eye out.

Hope to see you at a meeting soon- let me know if you have any questions!

January

Value wine recommendations. Bring a wine that is either: 

Undervalued in your opinion of 25% or more. This would be a wine that you’ve had and would pay more than it costs. (ie $15, but you think it’s comparable to $25+ wines in the same region) Any price is fine, but the higher in cost the more is should be “undervalued”.

$10 or under that you’ve never had, but it was recommended by a wine shop employee, wine mag, etc.

 

February

Zinfandel or dessert wines, $10-20.

*Because of the high alcohol content we’ll either have pizza or BBQ, so bring $5 to contribute or a dessert.
