East End Wines Presents Mendel Wines
We are proud to present a selection of premium Argentinian wines with the vineyard manager and enologist, Santiago Mayorga Boaknin. Mendel is one of the finest producers out of Argentina's prolific Mendoza region and we are excited to taste with you the 2009 Semillion, 2007 Malbec, and the 2006 Unus Malbec/Cabernet blend. The mission statement from the winery:
"MENDEL Winery embodies the union of Roberto de la Mota -one of
Argentina's most respected and experienced winemakers- with an
established Argentine family. Together we are dedicated to producing
wines of unquestionable superior quality expressing the quality and
character of our very old Malbec and Cabernet vineyards in Lujan de
Cuyo, Mendoza, Argentina. 
We choose the best lots from our
almost 80-year-old vineyards, paying rigorous attention to every detail
of the artisan winemaking process, from carefully sorting bunches to
fermentation in small tanks to aging in the finest French oak. Ancient
vineyards, passionate people, experience and friendship are blended to
create our remarkable wines."
The tasting will be this Thursday, September 30 from 4 pm until 8 pm. Santiago will be on hand to present the wines and answer any questions from 5 pm until 7 pm. Find out what all the hype is over Argentinian wines!
