- This weekend is the Golden Nose Wine Judging Event for all of us wanna-be wine judges. I hope to see some of you there. If you have not bought your tickets yet, it's not too late. Just call Paul or Glenda at the Seneca Lake Wine Trail at 877-536-2717. I hear there are still some tickets left. This is really a great event if you want to really know wine and Finger Lakes wine.

Golden Nose will be so fun! You'll have to keep me away from the Dr. Konstantin Frank Finger Lakes Rkatsiteli, I tasted this at the Vintage New York wine tasting room in NYC yesterday, it's AMAZING!
I can't imaging why more acres of this great grape aren't planted. What a wonderful wine.
