A live experiment based on music and wine sensory pairings.
To celebrate our fifth anniversary, Notaviva Vineyards presents our 2013 music and wine pairing event. Four wines will be presented in a blind tasting. Each wine will be accompanied by ten 30-second clips of music, from a wide variety of genres. Tasters will rate each clip of music, according to the wine being tasting, on evaluation materials provided. At the end of the evening, we will collect the evaluation materials for entry into a research database, which will be presented on the web! In addition to this unique experience, there will be heavy hors d'oeuvres, gourmet cheeses, fresh breads and desserts provided, and time for socializing after the event. Seating is limited, so don't miss out. Admission is $30 per person and reservations are required.
