Wines of Chile Grand Tasting in Chicago




The "Wines of Chile Grand Tasting" was held at the Chicago Illuminating Company.
More than fifty wineries from Chile were presenting their wines - a treasure of wines all to be found in one place. the one thing that I found was that prizing was very encouraging and the US Consumer would be well advised to look toward wines from Chile, in particular to Sauvignon Blanc's and Chardonnay's - because of the quality and price point.
Steve Lefebvre, the owner of Vino LeFebvre as well as Tim Chapman and Karl S Mann from Vino Lefebvre attendet the Grand Tasting.
Chile is one of the Countries which Vino Lefebvre is currently wants to add to their portfolio - and there are great wines to be found.
I will travel to Santiago next Monday, then onto Mendoza and Buenos Aires.
More to follow later.
