Andrew Steel: Wines of Argentina 

Neville Hall, Waltham St Lawrence 6.45 for 7.15pm

Members = £40;  Guests = £45

 

Andrew started his wine career in the Champagne business, and has given very well received tastings of both sparkling and other wines to the Fujitsu TV Wine Society.  It is a great pleasure to be able to welcome him to Berkshire Branch.  Andrew is bringing wines from the long-established winery Gauchezco Wines of Mendoza. 

Their vineyards have a long history.  Many are still planted with rootstock carried over from Bordeaux in the 1860s by the then Governor of Mendoza province, who was the original owner.

Mark will provide a starter of cheese empanadas and a main course of beef stew chimichurri.

The aperitif will be served from 6.45 pm, with the tasting starting at 7.15

You can pay by BACS or cheque, made payable to IWFS, Berkshire Branch.  Please reply to Andrew Johnson ( andrewmj45@gmail.com ) by Sunday 10th November and state whether you are paying by bank transfer (preferred) or cheque. Could you also inform Andrew if you are not coming.
