Thief Wine's White Wines of the Loire Virtual Tasting
Event Information
About this Event
The Loire Valley is a classic wine region of France, but its wines are often overlooked in favor of Bordeaux, Burgundy, and the Rhone. Let's rectify that! For this tasting we'll taste and discuss the three classic white grapes - Melon de Bourgogne in the western Loire region of Muscadet; Sauvignon Blanc in the eastern Loire, and Chenin Blanc in the center. The wines are delicious and this should be a lot of fun! To participate:
1) Register for FREE here.
2) Purchase 1, 2, or all 3 of the wines (special pricing on the set) by giving us a call at 414.277.7707; you don't have to purchase any wine to participate in the tasting, but it's a lot more fun to taste as you learn!* The wines will be:
- Domaine de la Pepiere 2019 "Clos des Briords", Muscadet Sevre et Maine ($21.95)
- Pascal Jolivet 2019 "Attitude" Sauvignon Blanc, Loire Valley ($18.95)
- Francois Chidaine 2018 "Les Chiosilles", Montlouis-Sur-Loire ($21.95)
- Purchase individually or save on a set - only $58 + tax for all three!
3) You'll receive a Zoom link when you register, and also in a reminder email. (If for whatever reason you don't receive it, email info@thiefwine.com by 7 p.m. on Saturday.)
4) The tasting itself will last about 45 minutes; we'll open up the wines and discuss the varietals and regions; you can open up one, two, or three and taste along with us and ask questions. Super fun! (If you can't make it at that time, we'll be recording it as well so you can watch later!)
*Note: If you do plan on purchasing wine, please let us know at your earliest convenience so we can ensure that we have enough quantities of each on hand.
