Bruning’s to host two special pinot noir tastings
I received the following email from Dan Craven of Bruning’s wine store in Beavercreek:
I wanted to drop you a line to see if you might have any interest in a special edition of our weekly tastings coming up. We think it’s going to be really great, and feel that it deserves a little extra attention.
The tastings will be during our normal days and times on Wednesday, July 28th from 5-8 and Saturday, July 31 from 3-6. The gist of this one will be a comparison between Burgundy and New World pinot. The New World wines will be one each of what I consider to be the top three AVA’s in the US for pinot production: Santa. Rita Hills, the Sonoma Coast, and the Willamette Valley.
The wines will be special: a 1er Cru Volnay from Joseph Voillot (the ‘Les Champans’ bottling from 2007), the Sta. Rita Hills bottling from Brewer-Clifton, a Sonoma wine from Scherrer, and the Yamhill Cuvee from Willamette’s Domaine Serene. With wines of this quality, it will be a great opportunity to see how these different regions stack up against a top example from the original home of pinot. I’m hopeful that all the pinot-philes (and I know they’re out there!) in the area will be excited to come and join us.
So, pinot-philes, there you have it — Bruning’s is the place to be Wednesday night or Saturday afternoon — or both!
