At one time, sweet wines like Hungary’s Tokaj, Spain’s Sherry, France’s Sauternes, Austria’s Ruster Ausbruch, and Germany’s Trockenbeerenauslese were the most sought after wines in the world. Vintners rarely profit from making these wines, and they’re becoming increasingly difficult to find. Sweet wines are a bit like harpsichord music, a once highly popular item that today is appreciated only by the select, refined few! Enjoy both at Capriccio's Saturday, Sept. 15, 2018 concert - with a concert ticket comes complimentary wine tastings & a glass of bubbly.

I'm delighted to be contributing to Capriccio's OenoNote Blog and meld the sumptuous pleasures of excellent wines with the rich, glorious music of the Baroque. I hope my OenoNotes will help readers explore and enjoy fine wines from around the world with friends and with the music of their favorite Baroque composers.
