Dear Food and Wine Lovers,

On Thursday, May 15th, Tony Coturri will be here for our Ninth Annual Coturri Wine Dinner. His winery in Sonoma County produces organic wines with little intervention in the vineyard or in the wine making process. Their efforts produce distinctive, full-flavored, gutsy wines that are made with only one ingredient: grapes. This will be the first dinner that we will serve a white wine and a rose from Coturri. Please see the enclosed menu for more details.

You are invited to attend this year’s dinner with Tony Coturri. His dinners are very popular and I urge you to reserve early. Marybeth and I hope that you will be able to attend this exciting event.

The next Wine Tasting Workshop will be held on Tuesday, May 20th at 7:30. Eric Litchfield, will lead us on a tutored tasting of German wines. He is a wine professional and German wine expert who has 18 years of experience importing and promoting German wines. He is president of GermanWineEstates.com Inc, one of the most popular German wine-related websites on the internet. We will be serving the following wines: 

Graf von Schonborn Hallburger Schlossberg Silvaner Kabinett Trocken 2004 (Franken)
Domdechant Werner Estate Riesling “Classic” 2004 (Rheingau)
Georg Mosbacher Estate Riesling Kabinett Trocken 2005 (Pfalz)
Domdechant Werner Hochheimer Kirchenstuck Riesling Spatlese Trocken 2005 (Rheingau)
Karthauserhof Eitelsbacher Kartahauserhofberger Riesling Kabinett 2004 (Ruwer)

Schloss Schonborn Hattenheimer Pfaffenberg Riesling Spatlese 2005 (Rheingau)

The cost for the workshop is $30. prepaid. This is an opportunity to educate your palate and discover some new tastes. Call to make a reservation with your credit card. Be sure to have dinner before the class because the kitchen will be closed afterwards.

Bon Appetit!
