Goat's Beard Tasting

The next tasting is on Wednesday, October 15 at 7:00 PM featuring 10 wines from around the world and the hand crafted cheeses from Goat's Beard Farm.

I have been looking to the tasting with Goat's Beard Farm for some time. If you are not familiar with Goats Beard, they are producers of award winning goat cheeses located just 30 minutes Northwest of Columbia in Harrisberg, Missouri. We will try 10 interesting wines paired with 5 different hand crafted cheeses; 2 wines with each type of cheese. We will have a guest at the tasting to discuss the process of making Goat cheese. Chuck and Tays will also be on hand. We will be taking orders for the cheese at the tasting. They are also available at the Root Cellar on Broadway and at the Farmers Market.

The tasting costs $10 and a 2 bottle purchase per person, $20 and 4 bottles per couple. Make reservations by calling 442 2207. Please do not leave reservations on the answering machine or via email. The list of what will be tasted follows.
