Our tasting this month will be presented by Barbara Johns. She has been a member of the American Wine
Society for 15 years, and previously served 3 years as the Program Chair and
Vice President of the Pittsburgh Chapter.
Barbara is also a certified wine judge, having completed the
3-year program through the AWS. She has
also attended a number of wine education classes and conferences, and has
participated in a number of wine lectures and wine competitions.
She enjoys wine tasting and touring, and has visited
wineries throughout U.S. and overseas in Austria, France, Germany, Italy,
Portugal, (and even China). But what she
enjoys the most about wine is the unique experience that each bottle brings.
Temecula Valley has been growing wine grapes since the late
1700s, but it was another 200 years before the industry truly took hold,
gaining AVA status in 1984. Tempered by coastal fog, this warm region is best
known for its Italian and Rhône varietals and its annual Balloon and Wine
Festival.
Our tasting of the Wines of Temecula will be held on
Wednesday, November 12, 2014 at the Evergreen Community Park, 3430 Evergreen Rd,
Pittsburgh, PA 15237 at 7:00 pm. The
cost for the event is $10 for members and $15 for guests. Make your reservations now. Please respond to:
