Halloween Lord of Rings Themed Wine Tasting

Redfield Cider (5815 College Avenue), 6-8pm

Calling all elves, dwarves, hobbits and humans this Halloween! Join Nic Winzey, the elvish somm, in a Lord of the Rings themed wine tasting. Sip your way from the Hobbit hills of the Shire, through the Mines of Moria. Join the Fellowship in Rivendell with an elegant elven wine, try a white wine from the White City of Gondor. Sample libations fit for the Dark Lord Sauron himself. This is your quest. Call up your trusty Samwise and join us at Redfield to explore the flavors of Middle Earth with wines representing select regions across the land.*

Complete the quest by trying all the wines or enjoy wines by the glass from your favorite region; costumes encouraged!

*Was this just a bunch of gibberish? Well, if you like trying a variety of wines in different styles, and don’t mind, nay, enjoy people in costume, join us for a fun tasting. Mind the nerds!
