In keeping with the tradition established by Dorothy and John (who write the Friday wine articles in the Wall Street Journal), Hinton's Wine Store held its Second Annual “Open That Bottle Night”, in the Bin 75 tasting room. We plan that this will become a tradition that our customers will enjoy being a part of each year.

The format was for each person/couple to bring a “Distinctive” bottle of wine they had been holding for some special event in the future. Each wine would be shared with other friends of Hinton's Wine Store. Attendees were encouraged to share any stories related to the particular bottle of wine which they were sharing.

Thirty-two attended and enjoyed many interesting wines that people had been saving for that “special” occasion. Good food was enjoyed and the event was covered by WGCL, Channel 46, the CBS affiliate on their Saturday night 6:00 and 11:00 p.m. local news coverage. Chris and several customers were interviewed.

In keeping with Chris’ commitment to make this 1^st Annual OTBN a high quality evening, Bin 75 provided a variety of quality appetizers and foods so that the wines brought could be enjoyed with a food that paired well with the wines. As a special treat, Chris poured an 8-year Vertical Tasting of Dominus Estate. Vintages were 1983 through 1990. This well-respected winery is located in the Napa Valley of California.

Dominus Estate is the proprietary red wine produced in the heart of Napa Valley by Bordeaux producer Christian Moueix and his team. Dominus has become known since its first release for its complexity and earthy character. Christian Moueix truly believes that producing a wine begins in the vineyard. For that reason, each vintage is unique with different varietal blends reflecting the vineyard and climate conditions of that particular year.
