SUMMARY:Summer Solstice Potomac Cruise
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday evening\, June 19\, we will once again enjoy a wonderful evening cruise on the Potomac.  We will be casting off all lines and getting underway from Georgetown Harbor\, just at the bottom of 31st Street NW at 7:15 pm.\, aboard the Nightingale.  As the boat leaves promptly at that time\, we need everyone to muster at the dock and suggest that everyone plan to arrive by 7:00pm.This will be a relaxing\, post-dinner cruise so we can concentrate on the wines and the atmosphere.  There are many dining establishments in the Georgetown area\, several right in the Georgetown Harbor area\, and we encourage all who want to take the cruise to dine there beforehand.  We must depart EXACTLY at 7:15 pm for the two-hour cruise down the Potomac and back again to Georgetown Harbor.

SUMMARY:Portfolio Tasting with Domaine Select and Daniel Hubbard
DESCRIPTION:Please join us Saturday\, April 9\, at 7 p.m.\, for our upcoming tasting with Daniel C. Hubbard of Domaine Select Wine Estates (DSWE). He has planned a power-point presentation to share with us his extensive knowledge of German wine.  As DSWE’s Central European portfolio manager and Mid-Atlantic sales manager\, Daniel is well established with the German wine scene\, as our board member Christian Schiller can attest.  They met at the 1st International Riesling Symposium last year at Schloss Reinhartshausen in the Rheingau. The tasting will be at the Harbour Square Club Room.  As you will recall\, this venue provides us a stunning view of the Washington skyline. The price for this tasting is $35 for members and $42 for non-members.In 2010\, DSWE was named Food & Wine magazine’s Importer of the Year.  The German wine portfolio of DSWE is exquisite and diverse\, containing\, at one end\, the Pfalz wines of Weingut Christmann\, whose owner\, Steffen Christmann\, is the current VDP President\, the organization of Germany’s elite winemakers\, and at the other end\, the wines of Dirk Wuertz\, a young and upcoming German winemaker who sells his Rieslings as bag-in box wines at Whole Foods and New York’s trendy wine bar “The Ten Bells.”  It’s one heck of a selection! The wines have been selected.  They are four flights of three wines each\, each flight representing a particular vintner.  The wines are: 2009 Christmann\, Riesling\, Deidesheimer Paradiesgarten\, Pfalz2009 Christmann\, Riesling IDIG GG\, Pfalz2009 Kuhling-Gillot\, Riesling Nierstein\, Rheinhessen Rheinhessen2009 Peter-Jakob Kühn\, Riesling Quarzit\, Rheingau2009 Peter-Jakob Kühn\, Riesling Doosberg\, 1.

We will have a few cheeses and fruits to complement our excellent cellar wines. We encourage all who came to the German Embassy House for the Spargelfest and our other recent tastings to continue to show their enthusiasm by participating in this ever popular event.  The cost for the Potomac cruise will be $34 for members and $41 for non-members. The deadline for making a reservation is 16 June\, to give us sufficient time to get supplies. We are glad that we found a reasonably priced boat company for an event that our members have always enjoyed. The boat\, the Nightingale\, is the same boat we used the last three years and it is larger than the one we used in previous years. It is all on one level\, and we have tables and chairs and a bar from which to serve the wine.  It also has protection against inclement weather\, which of course will not occur. So\, please join us for this comfortable evening on the river.
