Would you and your sweetheart like to make this Valentine's Day an opportunity for learning, as well as enjoying wonderful wines and food? Join us at Vinideus for a fabulous Wine and Food Pairing Event on February 14th.
Wine & Spirits Educator Sharona Tsubota will lead us through a series of FOUR specially chosen wine and food pairings. You'll learn about wine varietals, history, terroir, and how to pair wines with food at home. We'll try a little bit of everything, from white and red to sparkling and port. You'll come away with tasting notes and a new appreciation for wines you may not have explored in the past.
The program will commence at 5:30pm, and the wine tasting and light supper will take about one hour. You are welcome to stay afterwards to enjoy a glass, nibble on the daily specials and enjoy the remainder of your evening.
Participants will be offered special discounts that evening on the purchase of wines tasted.
This romantic evening is only $35/person. Space is limited, reservations and pre-payment are being accepted through February 12th, 2010. Call Vinideus at 503.284.2795 to save a spot!
