Join Evan as he focuses on the intricacies of the Pinot Blanc varietal. Evan discusses the origins of this varietal, and clarifies some of the confusion of other varietals masquerading as Pinot Blanc. Evan tastes two wines including the 2005 Hugel “Cuvee des Amores” Pinot Blanc from Alsace in the Premium Price Range, and the 2006 WillaKenzie Estate Pinot Blanc from the Willamette Valley in Oregon, also in the Premium Price Range. Evan also shares some of his favorite pairings that will complement each of these wines. Let Evan guide you in rediscovering a wonderful varietal worth trying again!

On this episode of “Cocktail Corner”, Evan is joined by San Francisco-based Mixologist Charlotte Voisey. Charlotte creates her “Winecouch Cobbler” cocktail, a rift on the classic “Cobbler” from The Old Waldorf-Astoria cocktail book, made with red wine, sugar, and fruit - a perfectly refreshing cocktail for the summer! Join Evan and Charlotte to learn how to create this wonderful and festive cocktail at home.
