Date Changed – Delaware Valley/Philadelphia Chapter Terry Theise Portfolio Sampling

The calendar may say its fall, but the thermometer has been saying otherwise. Hopefully, things will be more seasonal by the time our next event takes place. We are excited to present a sampling of the 2017 vintage portfolio of Terry Theise, a very strong vintage that is drinking well early. We have carefully culled some of the top values from his top estates to pour (only one wine retails for over $20). I hope you will be able to taste for yourself the depth and breadth of the wines across regions, pradikats and grape varieties. The list of wines follows:

2017 Silvaner Feinherb, Strub (Rheinhessen)
2017 Wie Im Fluge Riesling Feinherb, Goldatzel (Rheingau)
2017 Rieslilng Feinherb MC, Muller-Catoir (Pfalz)
2017 Paradiesgarten 1er Lage Riesling Trocken, Von Winning (Pfalz)
2017 Muskateller Kabinett Trocken, Darting (Pfalz)
2017 Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Kabinett, Selbach-Oster (Mosel)
2017 Loungucher Herrenberg Riesling Kabinett, Loewen (Mosel)
2017 Scheurebe Spatlese, Kruger-Rumpf (Nahe)

The tasting will be held at the award winning Caffe Aldo Lamberti in Cherry Hill, NJ. Recently honored by the Wine Spectator for their wine selection, our Chapter has enjoyed the wonderful service and outstanding food at this location for the past several years. For this event, a cold anti pasta, hot appetizers and pasta  served family style will be included with the tasting. Please plan to join us for this very special event.

DIRECTIONS:

From Philadelphia and points West, take the Ben Franklin Bridge, and exit from one of the two left lanes. Follow signs to Routes 30 – 130; stay in one of the two left lanes. Two miles East of the Bridge, the highway divides at the top of a ramp. Bear left, towards Routes 38 & 70. At the bottom of the ramp, move over one (or two) lanes to your right, to stay on Route 70 East. Go straight for three miles; 1/4 mile before you come to the restaurant, you will see a sign for Grove Street. Lamberti’s is on your right on Route 70 at the Grove Street turn. (Traffic is normally light on 70 East from the Bridge to Grove St., and the normal ride is 7 minutes.)

From NJ or points South, take Route 295 North to Route 561, Haddonfield/Gibbsboro, and turn left towards Haddonfield. Follow 561 until it ends, at Kress Liquors. The road will fork to your left; stay in the right lane and bear left onto Potter Street. Follow Potter to the light at Kings Highway, then jog across onto Grove Street. Stay on Grove Street through Haddonfield, and across the bridge over Cooper River. As you are approaching the intersection of Grove Street and Route 70, right before 70 you will see a sign on your left for Commerce Bank. Turn left into the bank parking lot, and continue straight past the bank into the back parking lot at Lamberti’s.
