This seminar had a filled room which signified the show of support for the further promotion of California wines. Experts were there, twirling their glasses to intensify the bouquet, to savor the 10 wines that were featured during the taste test part of the seminar. People like me, who drink wine regularly, gathered a lot from the information shared by the speakers, and it was such a treat to be able to explore different kinds of California wines, from the light and bubbly to the deep, rich, red ones.The seminar that started a bit after lunch was well attended by wine connoisseurs from all over the world, to include the US Ambassador to the Philippines, Philip Goldberg, who spoke for a while to uplift the spirits of the attendees.
After the seminar, we were asked to go to the grand ballroom. It was, for me and many others, truly an exploration of discovery, and quite an overwhelming one as it was unlimited wine being poured. I was glad to see a few of my close friends, such as Ralph Joseph of Philippines Wine Merchants and Johnny Revilla, who both took the time to explain more about the wines I was tasting.
I was also able to video a very pleasant interview with Mr. Richard Lieu, the Director of Trade Promotions for California wines. This video has a sneak peek of this wine-tasting event and a short talk with Ralph Joseph.
In this next video is an interview with Michael Parr, and it is full of information about Wente Wines, and he will be showing the different wines they have, and give a brief and very interesting history about the company.
