Sauvignon Blanc Tasting at Fuqua Wines

Did someone below just suggest Sauvignon Blanc as the perfect wine for salmon? Or not? Maybe Lee Fuqua knows. Tomorrow night his tiny winery is hosting a tasting of 12 Sauvignon Blanc wines from all around the world. The cost is only $24 per person. 214-769-1147. Too bad we couldn’t hold our salmon tasting at Fuqua tomorrow. (Was that subtle enough?)

Just don’t ask him where the grapes for the wines were grown.

Whoopsie, you are right. I feel a Worzel attack any minute.

The Sauvignon Blanc wines for Wednesday night are: 7 from California, 2 from Argentina, 1 from France, 1 from Italy and 1 from Chile.

The grapes probably came from those countries, although I was not there during the harvest or during the entire production of any of these wines, so I could not swear to it.

The wineries are Times Ten, Easton, Geyser Peak, Tangent, Rodney Strong, Langtry, Lolonis, Altosur, Norton, Fournier, an Italian and Santa Ema.

There is no guarantee that each of these wineries grew all the grapes that they used in the making of these wines. In fact, there is no guarantee that they grew any of the grapes that they used in making these wines.

We are just going to taste them and try to decide if we like them or not.

The event starts at 7:00 p.m. and tickets are available at http://www.fuquawinery.com
