Charlemagne Wine Club - 2007 Tastings

Single Varietals - France and the New World presented by David Carter
Due to illness, we regret that the advertised tasting by Patricia Stefanowicz on Pacific North-West wines had had to be cancelled. We hope that she will be able to present on this subject later in the year.

As a replacement, we have a special guest speaker (alias David Carter) who will be providing a comparison of New World and French approaches to single varietals.
