The Wine & Food Society of Jacksonville concluded their season with our annual "A Matter of Taste" informal wine tasting event featuring South African Wines. We were lucky to have members Tom Ryan and Cynthia Lyons there to help with the event as they conduct wine bicycle tours thru South Africa. The wines selected came from the Stellenbosch, Western Cape and Walker Bay regions.
