Weston Eidson, founder and wine maker of Montagu Wines, Richard King, co-owner and GM of Ellerbe Fine Foods, and Chris Keel, wine specialist and owner of, Put a Cork in It, join Fortitude for an incredible wine roundtable discussion. These three Fort Worth oenophiles discuss their backgrounds, the wine world and wine business, and why wine is so special to us, all while sampling some excellent bottles. Wine influenced mistakes were made, mostly by the hosts, but much interesting and insightful knowledge was gained. Our apologies to Chester Cox. Drink It Up!
In this roundtable: They share their knowledge over a glass (or two) of wine. They talk about the process of making and buying wine, how to pick your wine, and how to get into wine if you aren’t a big fan. You’ll learn a lot about wine and have fun along the way. So pour yourself a glass and have a listen.
