Central Coast Chardonnay wine tasting: an open invitation
I am involved in a social community local to the San Francisco Bay Area called Bay Area Linkup. I’ve been hosting hiking events with this group for nearly five years and wine-tasting events for the past three, and I’ll continue to do so simply because I’m having the time of my life.
While my hiking events often occur on weekends, the tasting events I’ve hosted have typically occurred on weeknights; that’s just how it fits my schedule. However, that kind of scheduling hasn’t particularly allowed guests who might be coming to Sunnyvale - where I live - from much farther than the local San Jose-Palo Alto corridor. Alas, most of the wine-loving membership on Bay Area Linkup exists in San Francisco - about 50 miles away - and there simply isn’t enough critical mass in the South Bay. And, after all, a night involving alcohol followed by a long drive and another day at work is not easy to bear, nor something I readily condone.
Therefore I’m hereby opening up the possibilities to a wider audience.
If you plan to be in the area on the evening of Thursday, May 8th and would like to participate in a group evaluation of six top-flight Central Coast Chardonnays, write me at winehiker [@] californiawinehikes [dot] com, and I’ll be happy to send you some details. (Cost is $30, in advance via PayPal.)
But hurry! Those that pay first, play first, and I only have five seats available at the time of this posting.
Thanks! I hope to clink glasses with you.





Alas, I will be nowhere nearby…but it sounds like great fun and makes me wish I didn’t live in Hell-ay…
