Chocolate Tasting

One of the golden rules of food and wine pairing says **"what grows together goes together"**. As experienced wine connoisseurs, we will challenge conventional wisdom and put this rule on its head by pairing - non Italian wines with the following classic Italian dishes: * *Caprese* * *Panzenella (sicilian bread salad)* * *Caponata* * *Prosciutto e Melone* * *Frittata di zucchini* * *Calamari alla griglia* * *Tiramisu* From Stellenbosch to Wellington and all the way to the Mosel or the Danube, the world is your oyster. Select and bring a bottle (still or sparkling, white, rosé or red) that is unconventional, unexpected, exciting or simply daring that will astound and inspire even the most traditional Italian sommelier. The requirements for the wine are simple, \- price range of 15€ plus\)\, \- if white\, rose\, sparkling please bring already chilled\, and **IMPORTANTLY,** keep the wine covered so no-one can see it. At our blind wine tasting events - we share, we taste, we analyse, we discuss, we enjoy and we attempt to identify what’s in the glass. No expertise is required - Curiosity is enough. **💶 Contribution** **€25 donation per person (plus your bottle of wine)** **A 72-hour cancellation policy applies.** **Who Should Join?** This evening is open to everyone — from curious enthusiasts to experienced wine lovers.

This is "***New Members Night***." If you are one of the many folks on the fence about coming to your first wine tasting with the *Hilliard Wine Club*, this is the night to come. There will be many other new people, so you won't be alone. And the regulars will be there to help make you feel welcome. We're a relaxed and warm group. We hope to see you. **SIDE NOTE:** New members are welcome to ALL our Friday night wine tastings, but this night is a special overture to those who don't want to feel that they are the only new person in the room. Don't worry. You won't be. And don't hesitate to RSVP to other events. **OLD MEMBERS NOTE**: Hey Old Members! You're not excluded from this event. We expect to see you there to help make the new members feel welcome. **Sample 4 different wines** this Friday for $15 (*Cash or Venmo only please*). Glasses are provided. Bring a snack to share. Bring a bottle to share if you care to. See all the details below for the Hilliard Wine Club Wine Tasting. In Person. In Real Life. Actual Wine from glass bottles with corks and everything. **Wine**: Tastings will be $15 for four samples as always. And you are welcome to bring a bottle of your favorite wine to share with others. Participation in the wine tastings is optional. But since you’re going, I will buy enough wine to cover you. If you bring your own wine and do not participate in the tasting you will only pay $10 to cover the door charge. **Parking**: There are several public parking lots near the Alive614 hall. Please be careful to NOT park in private parking lots. They do tow. Check Google maps to scope out your space. Anyone who is early could easily find a parking space on the street nearby. **Glasses**: …will be provided. Please note that after the wine tasting, the glasses need to be returned to the boxes at the service table. Please be gentle, our glasses are fragile. Uh, they are made of glass! **Food**: You are welcome to bring a snack to share. It is not required. Most people do though. If no one brings anything, there will be nothing. **Code of Conduct**: Though mostly understood, it’s still worth mentioning. We don’t have rules per se, but we highly discourage the following topics of discussion because they are likely to incite anti-social responses - Sex, Politics, Religion. Please don’t mistake this as an attempt to limit your free speech rights but rather a guide to a place and time for appropriate discussions. **Extra Wine**: After everyone has had their samples, we remove the pouring spouts and any remaining wine is poured freely to whomever wants it. I hate having leftover wine. **Queen of Hearts**: The Queen of Hearts raffle is a fundraiser for the club and a Barnum and Bailey type extravaganza - minus the dancing ponies, clowns, and actual circus. Bring your ***cash*** as the Queen does not accept American Express or other plastic. **After the lights go out**: After the last sip of wine, when we clean up and turn the lights out, if you still haven’t had enough of us, it is typical for a group to get together and go to a local eatery for food and/or drinks or coffee. Again, We look forward to meeting new members and reuniting with old friends. Sincerely, ***Paul Uttermohlen***, **Red 1 Realty** *Your Hilliard Wine Club Host*
