"Wine is Bottled Poetry" - Robert Louis Stevenson

Since the The Players Championship Clubhouse was at full capacity this past week, due to the Winn Dixie Golf Tournament, the Rotary Club of Ponte Vedra Beach Sunset once again needed to step off property and enjoy a friendly club social. 

This time we decided to go a lil'green and meet at Mulligans Pub inside their private dining room.  This was not a major inconvenience though as the club kidnaped the best part of TPC, as club member Steve Jones, Regional Director of Food and Beverage Operations for PGA Tour Golf Course Properties and Certified Sommelier, was our guest speaker for the night.  

Steve treated everyone to a "Trick or Treat" wine tasting in which we compared the flavors of different price points without knowing what wines we were tasting.  While it was obvious that some members of the club have a very sophisticated noses and great knowledge of wines,  most of the the members were fooled by the choices presented and many a claim of "my allergies must be acting up" could be heard. 

The theme of the night though was to enjoy the wine that taste better to you because everyone palate is different.  Don't let your selections be purely driven by price.

THANK YOU Steve for a great night!
