Alsace Wine Tasting: The Brilliant Bruno Sorg


It's In-Store Tasting time again at The Wine Store. Expert Simon Hore will be visiting on Tuesday 24th May with wines from my favourite Alsatian winery, Domaine Bruno Sorg.


THE BRILLIANT BRUNO SORG with SIMON HORE
Date: Tuesday 24th May 2011.
Time: 7pm Start.
Venue: Red & White The Wine Store, 99 Fore Street, Kingsbridge

Tickets: £5 per person; call 01548 853 898 or email chris@red-white.co.uk to book yours today.

I first fell in love with these wines at a trade tasting in London a couple of years ago and whilst I've had the odd bottle here and there since, I'm really excited about getting to know the Domaine's range again. These are some of the richest and finest wines in Alsace, and we'll be tasting a fantastic cross section, from Gewurztraminer to Riesling, from AC to Grand Cru - there may even be a bit of red involved!

Alsace is a region that so often gets forgotten about, or confused with Germany, so it's high time the wines were put in the spotlight again - and what better way to learn about them than a Red & White Tastings.

Tickets are £5, and are available from today by calling 01548 853898 or emailing chris@red-white.co.uk. Watch out though, we've moved away from our usual Thursday slot to a Tuesday evening.
