for those interested, there is going to be a wine tasting event in orchard park this saturday. it’s called Wines at the Shrine, I will be there along with ezfd pouring a few of the areas local wines/microbrews.
It’s all NYS/Canadian, but there are some decent bottles that will be opened, including some nice ice wines which some of you know can be pretty pricey. It’s a nice event, for a great cause, and for those of you who don’t drink wine it’s a good chance to get your feet wet as a lot of NY wines are very drinkable and easy on the pallet for noobs.
Lot of old timers here though, so don’t come if you expect to get rowdy, and make sure you wear something decent, preferably no jeans/t’s.
