You're Invited: Cherries & Wine Tasting Event
We are excited to announce our first-ever wine tasting event. And you're invited!
Planned in tandem with the annual, famously fun Catch the Crush festival, our tasting will focus on our award-winning Columbia Valley wines paired with our dried and chocolate cherries.
If you love wine and enjoy a fun weekend out of town, we encourage you to visit us in our beautiful corner of Washington wine country this October 8th .
What makes our tasting event different? We'll be offering the unique combination of dipped Rainier cherries and Chardonnay, along with our Columbia Valley Red Wine Blend paired with our chocolate cherries.
Cherries and wine offer an exquisite pairing experience that will
stimulate your palate. Because our cherries and wine grapes are grown in the same region,
they share similar notes and nuances that play off each other when combined. We've had many
a wine lover remark on how they've never experienced a pairing quite like it before!
Dipping dried cherries in wine is a method created by founder Pam
Montgomery. At the tasting, we will provide complimentary skewers and show you the
technique.
If you are unable to attend our event, you can host your own
tasting at home with Pam's recipe below.
The tasting will be hosted in front of our Prosser headquarters and Flagship Store. After you've sampled our wine and cherries, we'd love to guide you through a tasting of Chukar’s unique cherry confections and help you find cherry holiday gifts for your friends and family.
