Oenophiles Delight: Toast of the Town
Posted by Stacey Ornstein on Well Fed on the Town.

Calling all oenophiles.
Need an excuse to try over 500 delicious wines and spirits and dine on cuisine from local restaurants? Wine Enthusiast Magazine’s Toast of the Town is moving East. Having just left sunny San Francisco, the Toast is on its way to blistery New York, April 23, and Chicago, May 3.
Rare, reserve and estate wines will be on hand as well as other exciting selections from a dizzying list of vineyards. (Personally, I’m a little miffed about the lack of New York State wines as that’s my newest study in self-education.)
Ticket prices are $95 for the Grand Tasting Event, $185 for the VIP Ticket.
For more information, check out Wine Enthusiast’s website. In the meantime, get your nose and tasting notes in order. To brush up on your vino-lingo check out this website. Personal favorites (though not necessarily in wine terroire), not listed, include wet slate, hot pavement, eggy and leathery.
