Wild Women on Wine

Ok, so it wasn't exactly wild, but it was great fun! Tonight I attended the first "Girl's Night Out" at Purple Smile Wines in Fairhaven. Jeff Wicklund, proprietor of Purple Smile Wines, created these monthly tasting events specifically to celebrate and promote women winemakers from our great state.

Tonight's tasting featured the wines of DaMa Wines, a new Walla Walla winery. I thought they were outstanding! I came home with some Cabernet for myself, and a Riesling as a token gift for my husband, who grudgingly stayed home.

Get in the loop for future Girl's Night Out tastings, planned for the second Monday of each month. Visit Purple Smile's website for more info, or better yet, stop by the shop in Fairhaven, and sign up for the e-mail list. Jeff has tastings every weekend, and other special events and classes too. You want to be in this loop!
