This October, I am VERY excited by invitations to four Twitter tastings to experience wine from FOUR continents: Columbia Crest in Washington State North America, various Bordeaux Chateaus from France Europe, Concha y Toro Chile South America, and Chateau Tanunda Barossa Austalia!
Just in case you’re new to the conversation,
a Twitter tasting is where people all taste the same wines and then they talk about them together online, usually on Twitter but also on other social media channels including Facebook, blogs, and Instagram using a particular #hashtag to keep track of who’s talking about what.
So if you want to play along, save these October dates and times (Pacific time zone!), go grab these wines, and join in the fun!
