The glass changes the w**e. On Thursday, October 8, forty-two people experienced that firsthand at our Vancouver store, over seven pours of Pinot Noir.
We hosted the evening with Quails' Gate as part of their Pinot Project, and spent it exploring what shapes a Pinot Noir’s expression: terroir and w**emaking, glassware, serving temperature, and food pairing. The flight also included a preview of their upcoming Estate vintage.
Sommeliers Jenna Briscoe and Jason “JY” Yamasaki guided the room through each pour, with dishes from Hawksworth Catering. The evening sold out, so here’s a look back at the night.
We poured our Short Glasses, W**e Glasses, and Pinot Noir Glasses. What it showed us: pour the same w**e into a different glass, and it’s no longer the same w**e. 🍷
