You are absolutely right, everyone will get more out of it if they are open about their knowledge level and what they'd like to know. Great advice. See you on Sunday! Karen,

What a great idea to post "How to do the Taste"! I thought I would add a little "From the other side of the table". As a winery (Fielding Hills Winery) it is helpful, certainly not mandatory, if those tasting give a hint as to where they are in their qwest of wine knowledge. I have in the past felt silly explaining what an AVA is only to find out I'm talking to someone with advanced wine knowledge. At the beginning of a conversation we try to figure out whether to start at "where is Eastern Washington" or jump right into "the nuiances of the 2005 growing conditions vs. 2006 and why we use nongrafted rootstock vines at Riverbend Vineyard." There is a fascinating and huge variety of knowledge in those attending. We want very much to provide just the right information and experience for those attending. So don't be shy, tell us what you want to know and what we can we do to make your visit to Taste Washington even better!

Can't wait to try out some new stuff this year. Of course I always have more to try than I can since we don't have ready access to a lot of Washington wines in Texas! It is always such a fun event! I am bringing one "newbie" this year, so its always fun to watch them walk into the Qwest Center and go WOW!!!!! As always good advice! Can’t wait to try out some new stuff this year.
