Wine Sommelier
Our acting wine sommelier, Vice President John Legris was his usual cheerful self and shared some highlights in wine history:
In the year 71 the first vineyards were planted in Bordeaux
In the year 77 Plini the Younger published "In vino veritas" which means, "In wine there is truth."
In the year 79 Mount Veritas erupted, destroying Pompeii and the vineyards causing scarcity of wine.
Vice President John shared with us some of his and his wife Chihiro's favorite wines: Insomnia from California, a Cabernet Sauvignon and Clean Slate, a Riesling from the Mosel region of Germany.
