If you know anything about how Neiman Marcus rolls with the Smith’s, you know it will be a good time. The last time we hosted an event with them was for their 100th anniversary celebration in the Fort Worth store. Everything was slamming, especially the entertainment. The food was incredible. We had so much fun, people didn’t want to leave. NM started turning the lights out to get people off the dance floor! The band didn’t even want to stop but the staff had to think about getting the store back in order for the next day! It was one of the most well attended events I have been to at Neimans.
With that said, Neiman Marcus, my husband Jason, and I will be hosting a very special night with Riedel The Wine Glass Company, at Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steak House the week of the inaugural Fort Worth Food and Wine Festival.
We are kicking off with unofficial early celebrations at Del's on Tuesday, March 25th from 6:00-7:00pm with a Riedel wine glass expert, who will conduct a one hour tasting that will change the way you think about stemware for the grape.
Yes, glass...crystal actually. The design alone changes the taste of wine. See for yourself, as there will be a standard run of the mill glass to compare each wine paired with the appropriate Riedel stemware. Experience the difference of the nose, bouquets and finish of each wine, depending on the glasses used. When it’s not in the right glass all elements are considerably altered.
Now believe me, I’ve had my fair share of experience with various glasses at fundraisers and galas, and you can totally tell the difference. Wine just taste better in stemware with a thin lip. The crystal glasses used at the tasting are yours to take home at the end of the evening in a fitted box, and a Neiman Marcus shopping bag will be provided for safe transport home.
SHOPPING? Did someone say shopping? Not only will you get to take home the stemware you tasted from, but Neiman Marcus is setting up a mini boutique of Riedel drinkware and merchandise, including decanters, tumblers, glasses and other styles of barware for special order. Once you sip from the best, nothing else will ever compare.
