JKC HISTORICAL TASTING
Join us to span the arc of time, and wine, with J.K. Carriere. We’ll start with a glass in hand and talk origin while kicking soil in the vineyard. Next we’ll take it into the cellar as a means of better understanding wine in process, with barrel tasting as verification. Properly bolstered, we’ll retire to the caves, sit, taste and chat intimately about our current wines, then elevate to library wines that are beginning to hit their stride. Finally, we’ll reach back in time and taste older bottles to understand this celebration of fully mature. Our knowledgeable staff will try and bury you (in the best way!) with all aspects of J.K. Carriere’s approach to viticulture and winemaking. Finally, lest you worry, we’ll release you to the light to make decisions armed with new knowledge.
Historical Tastings are limited to six guests and available by mutually agreeable appointment Monday through Thursday, with at least two days of advance notice required. The $75 per person tasting fees must be prepaid ($50/person for club members, no prepayment; please book directly with JKC).
CURBSIDE PICK UP AT J.K. CARRIERE
For the quiet winter season we remain available for pick up of pre-ordered and club-member wines (only) Monday to Friday, 9am to 4pm. It’s never a bad idea to let us know when you’re headed our way: 503-554-0721 (ext 2).
Please order wine ahead by visiting our webstore.
