Riedel Crystal VIP Pre-Festival Wine Tasting Seminar
*Arrival is suggested from 5:30 to 6:30 we will start promptly at 6:30pm
We are thrilled to announce we are hosting one of our favorite events again this year, a Riedel Crystal Wine Tasting Seminar as part of our May Pre- Festival events on Saturday May 16, the weekend before our May 23 and 24, International Music, Wine and Craft Beer Festival. Riedel is the world’s premiere wine glass maker, and they know that the pleasure of consuming wine starts with the proper glass! Guests will learn by doing a hands-on comparison of how the shape of the glass affects the wine’s bouquet and flavors. Each guest will receive their own private set to use and take home of four Varietal Specific Riedel crystal wine glasses, as part of their wine tasting experience.
Join us for this special evening of learning and wine tasting to enhance your enjoyment, knowledge and experience in what we lovingly refer to as the Riedel “Voodoo” Wine tasting. You won’t believe how amazing it is until you have tried it for yourself and see how magical it is.
