Bell Harbor International Conference Center

The Worlds Best Wine, Food & Places
Sunday, September 12, 2010 4pm - 7:30pm

Join us in sampling and celebrating the worlds best wine blends, paired with delectable cuisine from Columbia Hospitality's unique hotels, inns and conference centers all on the spectacular Seattle waterfront at Bell Harbor International Conference Center. Created with the purpose of bringing people together to enjoy an exceptional experience, BLEND offers a mix of many exciting tastes, epicurean delights and palatable adventures available in
the Pacific Northwest and beyond.

For me, blending is the ultimate artistic winemaking tool, if your objective is to make wines with balance, and complexity and distinction. You either have the perfect variety growing in the perfect site in a perfect vintage, or you blend to achieve that perfection. Oh, and then theres the fact that I blend because blending is also the most fun part of winemaking. Brian Carter, winemaker/owner, Brian Carter Cellars
