This tasting examines time-honored Old World wine styles, shoulder to shoulder with New World interpretations of the same grape or blends. This lively discussion will highlight some selected matchups in a fun and relaxed blind-tasting format. ICE's resident sommelier, Richard Vayda, will lead the tour of classic Old World and modern New World wines (both cork and screw cap), as we discuss, taste and rate our favorites. Is it a Bordeaux or a California cabernet blend? A South Australia or German riesling? Cheese and other nibbles for pairing will be offered in between.
