Beyond the Grape’s Recent Finds tasting

Yet another week with multiple similar reactions. When people find out how many GOOD wine tastings we have locally I get the same reaction, over and over; “Oh my gosh, I had no idea!”Most of the local wine events are, or near, downtown. One notable exception is Beyond the Grape (BTG), located in Cordova Mall. I don’t count the wine events held at the big box stores. While the big box stores have some good events, supporting our local businesses is a big part of GCW.Not only did BTG, with Terrior Wines, put on a great tasting with good wines, but the charcuterie board, put together by Olive to Nosh, was AMAZING!Picking affordable wines that have the potential to please a wide variety of people is VERY hard! A tried and true way to take your wine tasting up to the next level is a good charcuterie board. But make no mistake, it will not cover up a selection of bad wine.So cudos to BTG, Terrior, and Olive to Nosh for putting together a great wine tasting in the Cordova area! Yet another reason why we get so many reactions-of-amazement when people find out how amazing our local wine scene is!
