We
have two great winemaker dinners to tell you about. February 19th
features two members of importer Kermit Lynch's wide stable of serious
talent. From France's Loire Valley, we have Catherine Breton, budding
star of Vouvray and Bourgeuil reds. From down south, in Roussillon,
we'll have Christine Campadieu, of the classic Banyuls and Coullioure
house, Domaine La Tour Vielle.
