Finger Lakes Wine Tasting with Peter Bell, Winemaker

4/6/2017

 
Thu, April 6, 2017 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM EDT
Vendange Institute 440 Albert Street #C108 Ottawa, ON
The Finger Lakes Region of upstate New York is becoming increasingly well known for making some outstanding cool-climate wines. James Molesworth of Wine Spectator has called the Finger Lakes “arguably the best Riesling region in the U.S.”. We are delighted that Peter Bell, a highly respected and experienced Finger Lakes winemaker, is coming to Ottawa to do a tasting of Finger Lakes wines for the Guild.
Originally from Toronto, Peter earned an enology degree at Charles Sturt University in Australia, and made wine for Hunter’s Wines in New Zealand. He moved to the Finger Lakes region in 1990, and was winemaker at Dr. Konstantin Frank’s Vinifera Wine Cellars for five years. Since 1995, he has been winemaker at Fox Run Vineyards on Seneca Lake. Peter’s broad and varied contributions to the Finger Lakes wine industry have been profiled in the acclaimed book by Evan Dawson, Summer in a Glass – The Coming of Age of Winemaking in the Finger Lakes.
Peter is very knowledgeable, and is an engaging speaker with a delightful sense of humour. He will bring a variety of wines from Fox Run and other wineries that will showcase the wines that are being produced in the Finger Lakes region.
