I could type a whole lot of stuff about this event. The Canadian Ambassador,
Ralph Lysysyn, was kind enough to open his doors to allow me to co-host the tasting in the private quarters of the Canadian Embassy. 55 of Moscow’s top wine enthusiasts left the tasting as relative experts in Canadian Icewine.
The high point for me was getting to know many of them during and afterwards, and I’ve enjoyed keeping contact with many of them over the past year.
One of the finest local magazines in the world, Passport Magazine, is an English language magazine that covers Moscow. It is a great read and brings Moscow culture and history alive for us Anglophiles who would otherwise not be able to read Russian.
