The Pennsylvania Wine Society will spend part of Sunday sampling several Washington State wines during the latest of its free remote tasting series.
Joe Via will handle the presentation, which runs from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. Via spent more than 30 years with the PLCB, first at the store level and then as a buyer, and finally as a wine and spirits educator at the PLCB Training Academy in its Central Region (Region 2). He had the luxury of traveling internationally and still retains contacts all over the globe.
Via plans to talk about Washington State’s geology, and especially its importance or connection with each wine-growing area or American Viticultural Area (AVA) created by glaciers, dams and floods.
His focus Sunday will be on the L’Ecole No.41 winery from Walla Walla and its use of specific vineyards and AVA’s in these wines. For those interested in participating. try to acquire at least one, maybe two or if possible, all on this list. Here are the wines with their PLCB codes.
