Tasting time: Beaujolais Nouveau, Angelo Gaja, California Zinfandel
Midnight marked the official release of this year’s Beaujolais Nouveau and a slew of related events is slated for the next few days – see my list from earlier this week (even Beer Mania is getting in on the act and will hold a party tonight from 8:30 PM). The next week will also see a wine dinner at Aria with legend Angelo Gaja and a Zinfandel tasting at Sequoia Cafe. Here’s the lineup.
