Twitter tasting Thursday

A wine tasting sponsored by Whole Foods Market is set for Thursday and those taking part will tweet their responses to the wines and the foods they think will go best with the three wines being tasted. The wines, two whites and a red, are Kyklos Moscofilero, a straw-colored wine from Greece; Yalumba Christobel’s Eden Valley Riesling from Australia and Pallas Tempranillo by Jorge Ordonez from Spain.

I haven’t done enough with Twitter to consider myself accomplished in this social media, but I’ve gathered some friends who will bring their laptops to a central spot with a wi-fi connection and we’ll be tasting and tweeting starting at 8 p.m. on Thursday. It should be interesting and is perhaps a great new way to share tasting notes with other like-minded people

Whole Food Market has bought the entire vintage of these wines, so if you want to join in and tweet your own responses to them, head there to pick up a few bottles.

Go to wholefoodsmarket.com/wine for more information about the Twitter tasting and use hashtag #WFMwine to follow the conversation.

It should be interesting.
