GREEK WINE DINNER

September 24

7pm

It is widely believed that winemaking in Greece began earlier than 4000 BC.  Because of this, Greece played a crucial role in the development of the wine culture of Europe.  Nearly two thousand years of foreign occupation affected winemaking, but many of her rich viticultural resources remained intact.  During the last forty years the Greek wine industry struggled to regain its name.  Now the indigenous cultivars, a superior climate for grape growing and an abundance of brainpower and technological resources are combining to present exciting new possibilities for wine lovers around the world.  Greece has undergone a revolution in which quality, individuality and history are the hallmarks of a new generation of Greek wine producers who will make their mark. 

For over 25 years, Steven D. Brown C.S.W. has been a driving force in the support of wine education, and the promotion of fine food and wine and is one of the ten Sommeliers to be invited to participate in Robert Parker's Wine Advocate Fund for Philanthropy 100 Point Wine Weekend.  He has won many awards from the Wine Spectator for wine lists and wine programs he has managed and designed.  His programs have also garnered praise in Food and Wine and Bon Appétit. In May, 2008 Steven opened 12th and Olive Wine Company on Capitol Hill.  The shop's focus is on wine and food education and showcases artisan wines from the world's great growing regions.

Join Sommelier Steven D. Brown C.S.W. and us to explore these fabulous wines paired with a sumptuous meal prepared by Kaspar.
