Chile and Argentina share the Andes Mountain range and produce some of the most affordable wines in the world. A large percentage of these countries' population originated in Italy and Spain, bringing amazing grapes and wine making skills with them. The mountains bring unlimited sunshine and limited rainfall to make incredible wines. Attendees will explore two white wines (Torrontes and Viognier) and three red wines (Carmenere, Cabernet Franc, and of course, Malbec).

Come explore the wines of the Italian Piedmont. The tasting (with paired nibbles) will start with a Gavi (white wine) followed by a Barbera, a Dolcetto, a Barbaresco, and an amazing Barolo (all of which are medium bodied reds). Barolo wines are made with the Nebbiolo grape and are the most sought after red wines in Italy. Nebbiolo has been produced for over 750 years in the Barolo region that consists of only 11 cities in northwest Italy. While Barolo often commands a $60+ price tag, some mighty fine, less expensive reds from this region will be tasted as well.

Thomas Hardy was perhaps a finer poet than he was a novelist. He began his creative life writing poetry, and as soon as he was well-enough off he gave up writing fiction and spent the last thirty years of his life creating verse of a stunningly high quality. He was also one of those literary artists who is never satisfied with his work, and turned to revision whenever an opportunity was offered. I want over these two talks to consider in detail four of Hardy's best poems: their context, how they reached their final version, and what it is about them this is characteristic of Hardy at his best. The poems are: "The Convergence of the Twain", "Beeny Cliff". "During Wind and Rain" and "Life and Death at Sunrise
