Join us at Westgate for a tasting of select wines from the portfolio of Kirk Venge.

The Venge (that's Ven-ghee, in case you're wondering) family has four decades of winemaking under its belt, starting with the purchase of seventeen acre's in Napa's legendary Oakville District -- and part of what makes it so legendary is because of the Venge's themselves. Nils Venge was the first American winemaker to receive a perfect 100 point score from Robert Parker, for his 1985 Groth Reserve Cabernet.

Nils' son, Kirk, has carried on this legacy of prestige and renown with wines that regularly garner acclaim from critics and connoisseurs alike.

Dominic DeCastro from Mutual Distributing will be leading this tasting. Come find out what makes Venge such a respected name in winemaking.
