Item Description
Naked Wine Tasting
CAUTION: the wine will be naked, not the people!
"Vin naturel should be naked wine; it is honest, transparent, and sensitive. Whether in a person or in a wine, these are qualities to cherish." - Alice Feiring
The lucky winning bidder will receive a Naked Wine Tasting for up to 8 people hosted at the Childs/Dirlik's home and a copy of Naked Wine: Letting Grapes Do What Comes Naturally by Alice Feiring. When you think about natural wines, organic and biodynamic agriculture practices are the first ideas to come to mind. The truth is, more than 50 additives and processes can be employed in these seemingly natural wines with only a "contains sulfites" label.
Izek Jasper, Certified Sommelier, will lead us through a unique tasting of naturally produced wines. We will explore 5 soulful wines that are a true expression of "terroir" (land, place, climate, earth) and not manipulated to meet the taste of the market. We will compare those wines to an example of an overly-manipulated wine that is also highly rated by Robert Parker.
Bid on this item for yourself, or grab some friends to share the cost. Otherwise you will have to go to New York City or France to find a similar tasting experience. Delicious gourmet edibles will accompany your tasting.
