Today, we celebrate America's wine!
And what is America's wine exactly?
MADEIRA.
Yes, that volcanic outcropping in the Atlantic Ocean.
Yes, that island that was / is / always will be a possession of Portugal.
Yes, that legendary fortified wine.
Yes, Madeira is America's wine.
We will delve into the island's history /
how the wine of this island arrived in the new world /
how that new wine's production was influenced by the new world /
its intrinsic connection with these United States of America.
It is going to be an adventure.
The specifics of the event:
-the tasting will be seated & structured
-the tasting will last 60 minutes
-we will taste six Madeiras (we will delve into the range of styles +
the ageing ability of this legendary tipple)
-we will have a nibble to enjoy with the Madeira
We very much look forward to celebrating America's wine with you.
