Spicy Olive Virtual Wine Tasting -Justin Winery Saturday Oct.10, 2020
Master Sommelier, Joseph Spellman will guide us through five of Justin Winery’s bottlings on Saturday, October 10th beginning at 5:30. In 1997 he won the French sommelier Competition in Paris and earned the title “Best Sommelier in the World in French Wines and Spirits.” Joseph has served as Sommelier and wine director for numerous Chicago landmark establishments including Maxim’s, La Tour at Park Hyatt, and Charlie Trotter’s. His wine notes for Trotter’s series of recipe and photography books earned high critical praise.
You may call ahead for curbside pick up or come in to The Spicy Olive to get the wines prior to the event so you can taste along with Joseph; we will be able to deliver the wines if you prefer. You can sign in to Zoom to join Joseph, Chris, Melanie, Nicholas and anyone else participating as we taste through the four wines on a live, interactive web conference. A link or Log In and Password for the Zoom Meeting will be sent to those who indicate their interest. Please call The Spicy Olive (513.847.4397), or Chris (513.560.7007) and let us know you want to get the wines and join in the fun.
You do NOT have to buy all of the wines to participate. Remember, we are able to discount purchases of 6 or more bottles by 10%. Note that we are offering Half Bottles of the 2014 Isosceles (Bordeaux-style blend) and Standard bottles of the 2017. We regret that we were not able to obtain both sizes from the same vintage but we did want to offer both sizes to present a more affordable option. Please continue to observe current guidelines for Social Distancing.
