October 6, 2010 -- Wednesday Wine Tasting

This month's wine tasting will be the Pro-Am of tastings. We are featuring wines from the wineries of golf legends Greg Norman and Nick Faldo. Plan to drive on downtown Wednesday evening and dogleg at the corner of Main and Water Streets. You'll address your glass with the proper grip and a solid stance at the bar. Instead of a foursome of wines, we'll be tasting a foursome, plus two. The front three will be Norman's California Estate Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc and Faldo's Australian Sauvignon Blanc. On the back three, we'll tap into the cup a Cabernet and a Shiraz by Faldo and a Zinfandel by Norman. You tell us which wines are up to par. There will be plenty of mulligans, and we promise to get everyone out of the rough by the end of the evening. Be sure to have your caddy lined up for the drive home.
Cost is $15 per person and includes tastings of six wines, appetizers, printed tasting notes, discounts on purchases, and lots of fun!
Our planned appetizer menu includes: Baked Cheese & Almond Crispers, Garlic & Brown Sugar Cheese Balls with Graham Crackers, Baked Peanut Butter & Bacon Stuffed Peppers, Baked Ravioli with Pumpkin Sauce,
Sweet Potato Bread with Pineapple Butter
