Tonight is your chance to sample wines from across the world, right here in Dauphin.
The annual wine tasting fundraiser hosted by Dauphin’s Rotary Club and the Dauphin Liquor Mart is tonight.
It starts at seven and runs until ten.
Howard Wirch, chair of the event for this year, talks about what everyone should expect.
“There’s different tables set up by various vendors that represent different wine distribution companies. They display a verity of wines from all over the world. There are wines from Canada, of course, from B.C. and Ontario. There is even one table that is featuring Manitoba wines. Then there are wines from across the world.”
Wines are coming from typical wine producing countries like France, Spain, Australia, Chile, and Argentina and the US.
Wirch explains how the night works.
“As part of your entry, we give away complementary programs which have all the wines and tables listed in the program so that you can make notes or check off the wines that you do like. Obviously, everyone is drawn to different types of wines. Whether it be white or red, or Rose or Sparkling. All are featured, and each representative will probably have a verity of different wines on their table.”
Tickets cost only $30 for the night out and include the wine, the Co-op’s deli department showcasing a selection of cheeses and other deli items for sampling plus lots of entertainment.
it's taking place upstairs at the Parkland Recreation Complex.
They can be purchased at the Dauphin Liquor Mart, or you can call Howard at 204-647-3005, or Ryan at 204-647-5903.
