Wines & Spirits of Eastern Europe CURRENT FOCUS: WINES & SPIRITS OF EASTERN EUROPE Eastern Europe has been making wine since the time of the Celts, before Roman occupation. Many wines of the region were highly prized by the Romans, Turks, and Habsburgs. In the 1940’s under Stalin’s rule the region fell under Communist control and winemaking was handed over to government-run cooperatives, virtually eliminating the fine wine industry. The fall of the Berlin Wall and the dismantling of Yugoslavia in the late 1980’s-early 1990’s gave winemaking back to the people, and the industry began its renewal. Today countries like Austria, Hungary, Slovenia, Croatia, and Georgia are leading the region’s recovery, with Serbia, Macedonia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, and Romania close behind. Explore this exciting region of the wine world in the pages of the following menu.

  • Group & Limo Policy Handbook
    GROUP & LIMO POLICY HANDBOOK latest revision 11-27-2018 Tasting Room Etiquette 1. Drink Responsibly. Those little ounces add up! It is a short drive between each winery and an excellent opportunity to quench your thirst with a non-alcoholic beverage. 2. Our wineries are located within rural communities, with neighbors in close proximity who enjoy the quiet country life. Please be respectful of our farms and communities by keeping your stereo and voice volume down. 3. Our wineries are family oriented businesses. Many of our visitors bring children into our tasting rooms. Our own children are often present on the property. Please be respectful of others in your language and behavior. Offensive clothing or items will not be permitted on premises. 4. Each winery has a different tasting fee and it will be explained to you by your host at the tasting room bar and each winery’s tasting policy is listed on its individual page in this booklet for your convenience and reference. 5. Every tasting bar provides a spill bucket for unwanted wine. This allows you to taste several wines without over imbibing and is placed on the bar for your convenience. 6. If a tasting bar provides crackers or some other neutral food it is there for the purpose of cleansing your palate between tastes. Not all wineries provide this and you may wish to bring in your own neutral food, for example, oyster crackers. 7. Be patient with your wine server. Wine tasting should be an educational and enjoyable experience for you and all customers in the tasting room.
