Super Tuscan tasting at Fayetteville Wine Society

[wondersofwine]

Yes, it was a bargain. Usually our payment is geared to cover the actual costs but this time we got off easily. Nick Parrous, partner in Luigi's with his sister and brother-in-law, and a founder of the Fayetteville Wine Society, is really into Italian wines and may have covered some of the costs or contributed wines from the restaurant holdings. When I commented to the educational representative from Empire Distributors that I was surprised to see a Tignanello on the list, he said it had been a surprise to him also.
The evening was enhanced by the return of another founder of the group, Kristine Miller (not sure if the first name is spelled this way but I believe it starts with a 'K' not the usual 'C.") She even brought along her husband and new baby boy. Now that she can drink wine again, she will be teaching a wine course at Fayetteville Tech Community College as well as working for an advanced degree in the hospitality area.
