Women & Wine Tasting Parties

Hi wine lovers,

here in the US beeing part of “new world” – outside the traditional wine-growing areas of Europe like Argentina, Australia, Canada, Chile, New Zealand, South Africa and Mexican as well – I got the chance to refine my wine senses. Mira, Jessica, Kiran and I joined this exclusive wine tasting seminar by sommelier Cynthia Betancourt at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Downtown. It was so funny sitting and watching all these wine loving american women who were looking for professional tips and tricks for their own “home wine parties” which will for sure come very soon!!

It was an amazing experience drinking a Sauvignon Blanc out of a wrong glass the Burgundy one- a totaly different smell and taste, awefull! So take care about your glassware next time – it makes such a big difference! And one more learning from last night’s wine session: using a plastic cup every wine tastes realy bad no matter if it’s an expensive Chardonay or cheap Pinot Grigio!! Keep this in mind for your next picnic
