There’s nothing like blind tasting to level the playing field! The quality of Michigan wine has been on a vertical climb for decades. But don’t take our word for it – we’re hosting a mano-a-mano tasting of 8 cool climate varietals, grown with great success in Michigan, against primo European examples that are comparably priced. Your vote will determine the results, plain and simple! We’ll showcase varietals such as Pinot Grigio, Grüner Veltliner, Kerner, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Gamay, Blaufrankisch, and Cabernet Franc. The Michigan contenders come from accomplished wineries such as Good Harbor, Left Foot Charley, Mari, Marland, bigLITTLE, Shady Lane, and Modales, representing the appellations of Lake Michigan Shore, Fennville, Leelanau Peninsula and Old Mission Peninsula. This will be too much fun – picking out the Michigan wines will not be as easy as you think, and the results are not a foregone conclusion…
