Australian Wine Tasting
with Chris Curtis of Winebow
Wednesday, Janaury 22nd, 3:30-5:30
@MetroWines on Charlotte Street
"at the bar" and "on the house"
Why Australia? Chris Says:
"It's cold as sin here, but it's warm summer in Australia. Come travel vicariously.
The Australian Open tennis tournament is in full swing. Come pick up a few bottles to drink whilst watching.
These are far from the overblown, over-extracted wines of yesteryear. Fresh Sauvignon Blanc (at 12% alcohol!), dry Riesling (11.5% alcohol!, 92 pts Wine Enthusiast!), a Margaret River Cabernet that's like a beautiful dream cross between Bordeaux and Sonoma, and a Shiraz from one of the pioneers of the Australian organic/biodynamic movement."
TASTING:
Shaw & Smith SB (Adelaide Hills)
Pikes Clare Valley Dry Riesling
Howard Park Miamup Cab (Margaret River)
Paxton MV Shiraz (McLaren Vale)
When wine enthusiasts relocate to Asheville from regions known for their vineyards, they often worry about losing their cherished winery memberships and that direct connection to favorite vintners. Yet after discovering Metro Wines, many find themselves happily canceling their last remaining winery club subscriptions.
