Wine Tasting and Sale: February 16, 2022
The MIYC Wine Sale and Tasting, held to clear the cellar of old and single bottles, and to taste new wines from our distributors, was a tremendous success!!! Four Distributors were stationed outside the Harbor Room and on the Pointe. Each participant was given a small wine glass to sample the wines, and a charcuterie platter was set on a table on the Pointe . Members were really “into" the tasting – asking the distributors many questions about the wine backgrounds and
age of the wines -- so they were definitely engaged in helping us find our new
wines!!!! Every single bottle of wine we set out to sell was sold!
Throughout the event, we were serenaded by Vinchinzo, an opera singer discovered at Marco Island’s Davide restaurant by several members. Vinchinzo was such a big addition to creating the right mood for this sale!!! Amazing singer! Many positive comments were received from members: “Fantastic event, this was so creative, we should do more of these, we really need a wine list, I didn’t know we had a wine list, this was so much fun and different than our usual events, Vincenzo was amazing – we should have him back” to repeat just a few.
Now comes the next step in this large project--choosing the wines for the menu! This is a dynamic process that we fully expect to be done on a continuing basis with some wines rotating in and out of our menu. Stay tuned for updates…
