Experience the rich taste of Malbec wines, as speaker Bobby Fiournay of Grapefields entertains questions throughout the event. The restaurant will offer a sampling of light hors d’oeuvres to compliment these memorable wines. The festivities begin at 6:30 p.m. with a social gathering for $19 per person including wine tasting and tapas. Originating from the Bordeaux region of France, this grape is among the "big six" for red wine grapes. Its fame and fortune could end there, for in Bordeaux, Malbec is used like a chef would use a spice. It is blended with other wines but it makes up a very small percentage of the blend. However, the story in Argentina is quite the opposite. Malbec has found renewed acclaim and initial glory in the sun-drenched climate of Argentina. It has become the countries’ signature grape and it is quickly making a new name for itself with red wine lovers. It has also found fame in Chile, where Malbec has become the third most widely planted grape. Wines that will be featured: Lopez, Rose, Mendoza, Argentina, 2004 Alamos, Malbec, Mendoza, Argentina, 2004 Delorimier, Malbec, California, 2000 Abacala, Malbec, Umpqua Valley, Oregon, 2001 Pascual, Toso, Mendoza, Argentina, 2003 El Fellino, Malbec, Mendoza, Argentina, 2004 Chef Daniel Zoby will graciously prepare alternative selections for those who have special dietary needs.
