Last night, about 14 people attended an Anuva wine tasting and sampled Hom, Anecon, Uruco, Cavagnaro and Don Juan. We are very pleased to say that many of them are now members. It never ceases to amaze me how many people like all of our wines for different reasons:
Full bodied Reserves
Fruit forward Malbecs
Exclusive, hard to find wines
Unique varietals
Velvety wines
Easy to drink wines
These were the top reasons I heard last night. It also never ceases to amaze me how a group of strangers can come together over wine. It can start as the topic of discussion and then become the “title” of a given memory. E.G. “Do you remember when we had that Cavagnaro Malbec Reserve with Al and Nancy from the Bay Area? What a great night that was. The wine was so earthy and full of red fruit and I remember how that started a discussion on whether California wineries will be able to… what a good time that was.”
Last night was very similar. We discussed the terroir of Argentina, the culture, the winemaking culture, business practices and then, a whole slew of things ranging from food pairing to Argentine politics (yikes) to my wedding plans. I appreciate everyone’s company lat night and I hope to have more tastings like this because they are not tastings. They really are events where people come together over wine, and I get to truly enjoy my job.
