In-service at Cassel Vineyards

      Last week we held a late night in-service at Cassel Vineyards of Hershey.  A professional wine taster and expert in wine pairing, Steve Juliano tasted our wines on our opening weekend and prepared a presentation  for  our employees.  Steve emphasized a simplified approach to wine tasting not based on the 100 point system but rather on a 3 point system.  He brought the tastes and food pairings down to a level that we can understand and explain to our customers.  The food pairing was simple and straight forward with an emphasis on cheeses, fish and red meats.

     Steve was very happy to share his knowledge and expertise with us in the hour that we were together.   Our employees would like to organize further tastings and even some food pairings with Steve and our customers.  The night was a huge success and everyone went away much happier and better prepared to serve our customers.  I would like to say it was like every in-service I have ever attended but I can't say that.
