Phase One of the Capital Grille's summertime Master Wine Tasting Event,

which runs through September 5, includes Napa Valley wines such as Bancroft

Ranch Merlot from Beringer Vineyards; a Cabernet Sauvignon from Sella

& Mosca Marchese di Villamarina; and Pinot Noir along with other

varietals from Villa Maria Cellar Selection of New Zealand. The second

session takes place July 26 through September 5 and highlights Napa

Valley Chardonnay from Cambria Winery and Vineyards; wines from Spain,

including a Jorge Ordoñez Muscat Alexandra; and several wines from

Australia, including the Chook Sparkling Shiraz.

The Capital

Grille staff will help guide guests through the sampling, present them

with tasting notes from George Miliotes, and will prepare custom

flights for guests particularly interested in comparing and contrasting

similar varietals from the regions being presented. The price is right too:

"generous pourings" of up to 11 wines for $25.
