SUMMARY:2015 Vintage Tasting
DESCRIPTION:Registration is closed for this event.Dear German Wine Society Members and Guests\,Every year we host a tasting to provide members and guests with an early opportunity to try wines from the new vintage. Our host is Phil Bernstein of MacArthur Beverages\, one of the leading retailers of German wines in the country. The new vintage is 2015\, which John Gilman describes as stupendous\, with the potential to be the finest in Germany in 40 years. Jancis Robinson’s website says: Since the turn of the millennium the term ‘vintage of the century’ has been bandied about in Germany for 2005\, 2007\, and 2009. But 2015 may well turn out to be the real thing. This event offers the opportunity to see for yourself and find out which wines you like. DATE:  Friday\, March 10th\, Doors open at 7:00 pm; Tasting begins at 7:30 pm. VENUE: Harbour Square Club Room\, 500 N St SW\, Washington\, DC. Marilyn Scarbrough has thoughtfully reserved a few parking spaces\, but we cannot guarantee these will be available. Metro is accessible via the Waterfront Metro Station on the Green Line. COST: $39 for members\, $46 for non-members. GWS members and guests are reminded that alcohol consumption can lead to intoxication. Members and guests should use public transportation\, rely on a designated driver or taxi\, or taste the wines rather than finish them. You can register and pay by PayPal by going our store.

SUMMARY:Sparkling Wines of the World
DESCRIPTION:Prost\, German wine drinkers! We are excited to present another small group tasting at the home of Christian and Annette Schiller in McLean\, Virginia\, this time for a showcase of the sparkling wines of the world. Many wine drinkers do not know that Germany is the #1 consumer and #2 producer of sparkling wines in the world\, and we will show why! We will begin tasting at 7:00pm\, Saturday 25 March 2017 and attendance will be limited to 16 people. German Wine Society Secretary\, Joe Aguiar\, and member\, Annette Schiller\, will present on the different styles and terroirs of sparkling wines. We will taste wines from Germany\, France\, Italy\, California\, Virginia\, and England. We will learn that sparkling wine is for much more than just celebrating special occasions—though this is certainly a good thing too—and are some of the most complex\, food-friendly wines in the world! You are invited to stay after the tasting for socializing and are encouraged to bring an extra bottle of wine if you would like to stay. There is no metro access to this location\, so attendees will either need to drive or arrange for a car to pick you up. Here is the address and phone number: 6404 Woodsong Ct McLean\, VA 22101 703-462-8672 Light refreshments of cheese and baguette will be served with the wines and we will serve an additional sparkling wine during the beginning of the tasting while attendees are arriving.
