We had a total of 14 people there to eat and drink! We spread out over the dining room and the living room.  Hubby and I manned the kitchen! Rolling out the  different food settings while they explained everything and poured the wine!  We enjoyed all the wines that were tasted! The Chardonnay was a nice  flavor and not the normal biting taste you usually get. 

We ended with the Port from ClearCreek Cellars in Evergreen (we provided that!). Most people seemed to like that as well!
