If you visit a local winery, like Westport Rivers<\/a>, you not only have the opportunity to sample their wines but also to meet some of the people who know the most about their story and their bottles. This is one of the vineyards on the Coastal Wine Trail<\/a> that includes wine tasting opportunity in our south coast and nearby states.<\/p>\n
Many wine shops host tastings, and some offer extraordinary opportunities to try a wine you might never experience otherwise. We once tasted Salon Champagne at a Brix Wine Shop<\/a> Tasting. While we found that this legendary Blanc de Blanc was not to our taste, we discovered other offerings from this vintner to add to our wine collection. Moreover,<\/span> we've enjoyed meeting some great winemakers over the years.<\/p>\n Restaurants with great wine lists and knowledgeable staff are another way to sample wines. A few wine bars may offer flights of wines matched with their food. We have been known to ask if we may have half-glasses of two different wines so that we can have an old favorite and something new.<\/p>\n Trying wines from different places, made with different grapes and produced by different methods, adds spice to our monthly ritual. Since 2007, we have raised a glass of sparkling wine to greet each new month!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Related Posts:<\/strong><\/p>\n Our Sparkling Resolution is covered in this post : Join Us as We Toast…<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
