I'd like to invite you to attend my yearly New Vintage Tasting with the German Wine Society. We've selected some of the best wines of the vintage and for those of you that haven't attended; this is always a fun event. We keep it light and have lots of great back and forth banter. The wines are the stars of the show, and if you're not too familiar with German wine, this will be a great learning opportunity. If you haven't already heard, 2019 is an exceptional vintage for the great Rieslings of Germany (potentially a 100 point vintage!) You do not want to miss this! -Phil Bernstein, MacArthur Beverages
