Organic Wines of North America
Tuesday, July 29 • 7-9pm • $75
Barry Block, Wine Educator, Capital Wine & Spirits
Wine is big business. As demand for wine has increased, businessmen have figured out how to make a better bottle - faster, cheaper, & more consistent. Unfortunately, many of these processes include pesticides, herbicides, chemical fertilizers and other synthetic chemicals. But, there are still wine makers out there who manage pests naturally, tend to the vines by hand, carefully select grapes and make wine gently, with minimal filtration. These wines often have minimal sulfites as well so you’ll really feel good about drinking them. Chef Aaron will create a meal to complement Barry’s Continental U.S. selections.
