Web & Wine Night - June 14th

I'm happy to report that Web & Wine Night was a striking success. Participants were treated to an informative technology education session from Burlington Bytes that focused on SEO, Design, Social Media, & Web Development, while the wine component of the evening explored "The Effects of Terroir and Winemaker Influence," in a presentation led by yours truly.

The effects of terroir and winemaker influence are some of my favorite wine subjects to discuss, and I really appreciated the level of interaction and engagement from the "Web & Wine" crowd. Our 4 wines from France, California, and Oregon, generously provided by Baker Distributing, provided a fantastic example of how the aforementioned factors can affect the taste and character of a wine. 

Our four wines were as follows:

• 2014 Christian Moreau Chablis, Chablis, France
• 2013 Healdsburg Ranches "Slightly Oaked" Chardonnay, California
• 2014 Joseph Drouhin Laforêt Bourgogne Rouge (Pinot Noir), Burgundy, France
• 2014 Argyle Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley, Oregon

This event was hosted at 2 Church Street, at The Cellar at EB Strong’s. Light appetizers from EB Strong’s catering were also served.

I'd like to extend a big thank you to Burlington Bytes for inviting me to speak, to the staff at EB Strong's for ensuring that the evening ran so smoothly, and to Baker Distributing, for generously donating the wines for the evening. Also, thank you to the Lake Champlain Regional Chamber of Commerce for sponsoring this fun event!

This was a great time, and I look forward to conducting more tastings along these lines in the near future!
