Wente Vineyards Presents
Karl's Artist Bio

Thanks for exploring "Discover the Wine, Discover The Music." If you're reading this, it's likely that you, like me, love fine wine and great music. Both are extraordinary complements to the moments in life that we cherish the most--reflection, celebration, creation and inspiration. I've put some of my thoughts down, as a winemaker and a musician, on why I believe these songs and wines are especially well-suited for each other. Of course, I encourage you to mix and match to discover your own personal favorites.

Pop-Up Pour Tonight @ Origami Vinyl

West Indian Girl, The Hold Steady, Riverbank Riesling, Pop-Up Pour, Origami Vinyl, Southern Hills Cabernet Sauvignon, Aquarium Drunkard

Posted by heidirichman on Dec 13, 2009

Good Food, Good Wine, Good Music, Good People: Tonight we get to practice what we preach-- all that was missing at Aquarium Drunkard’s Decade in Review soiree tonight at Origami Vinyl in LA was the GOOD WINE. Problem solved! Join us for our first ever “Pop-Up Pour”! We will be pouring each of the six wines currently in DWDM. Is West Indian Girl really a Riesling? The Hold Steady a Cab Sav? We want to hear YOUR wine/music pairings, but you must be 21+, natch, to taste.

When our friends in Foreigner asked us to be part of this year’s Painted Turtle Benefit, we jumped at the chance! As Karl would say, “good food, good wine, good music, good people”.

We recruited DWDM’er Francis Ten to come pour with us

A bonus prize for me was getting to see old friend Kelly Hansen, & watching him kill it on Foreigner faves. Hot Blooded, indeed!

In addition to these pix, good pal Lina Lecaro documents all in her LA Weekly column & slideshow
