SUMMARY:2013 Vintage Tasting with Phil Bernstein
DESCRIPTION:Dear Members of GWS and Guests\, Since April 3 presented too much of a conflict with Good Friday and the beginning of Passover\, we have moved the vintage tasting (and membership meeting) to April 10\, at the same time\, 7 p.m.\, but AT A  DIFFERENT VENUE: WE WILL NOW BE MEETING at the Colonnades\, an apartment building located at 2801 New Mexico Avenue\, N.W. in the District. Thank you\, Yolanda Mamone and Marilyn Scarbrough\, for helping to arrange this. If you have already sent in your reservation for the original date\, April 3\, we will assume that you are now coming to the April 10 vintage tasting.

Below is a copy of the original meeting announcement\, with the original location and date updated. Hanne CaraherSecretary\, Capital ChapterDear German Wine Society Members and Guests\,  NOTE: Due to the inclement weather in early March\, we postponed the membership meeting and board election.  We will conduct this meeting and vote at the end of the New Vintage Tasting.  All information and request for nominations from the prior announcement remains valid and in effect.  Every year we host a tasting to provide members and guests with an early opportunity to taste wines from the new vintage.
