… it's that time of the year when winemakers from the Old World are crossing the ocean to showcase the wines that are ready to drink. Either from last year or older vintages, we gonna taste hundreds of them in order to select the few that will make it to our list!!! Most of these tastings are professional, but some importers set smaller ones, or pairing dinners, in restaurants or wine stores all over town, allowing you to meet with the geniuses, talk to them, ask them questions about their work and most importantly, taste the juices you'll be sharing with your friends and loved ones for the monthsi to come.
The first to shoot for the season will be Jenny & Francois Selection. With 15 winemakers in town, an impressive schedule is set for numerous events, including a tasting with us, @ The Ten Bells with 3 wine makers. Alain Rochard from Domaine du Loup Blanc in the Minervois (Languedoc-Roussillon), Renaud Guettier from Domaine La Grapperie in the Coteaux-du-Loir (Loire Valley) and Chad Hardesty from Ardesty Cellar in California.
They gonna make you taste 8 cuvees, along with some charcuterie, and will give you force details about their terroirs, why most of the work is done in the vineyard and what's going on in the cellar, so you will understand why the wines are authentic!!! So mark your calendar, this coming Wednesday, March 9th, 2 seatings of 20 people only will be able to participate, the first one @ 6.30 p.m, the second @ 7.30 p.m. $25/head. There's a few places still available for both seatings.
Call to make your reservation @ 212 228 4450.
Taste In another hand, as always, Sunday host a special dish. As the weather doesn't really wanna switch from Winter to Spring, we'll keep it spicy with a Mexican flair with RABBIT IN ADOBO!!! Cheers
Winemakers - Dan Aykroyd is adding his name to the ongoing list of celebrity winemakers. The Hollywood veteran actor has invested in Niagara Cellars to release the Dan Aykroyd Signature Reserve Vidal Icewine 2005; expect the celebrity vintage early next year.
But the Ghostbusters star doesn’t want to stop there, Aykroyd also wishes to develop other white wines as well as a new vodka, as if we didn’t have enough of both, eh?
