Southern California is about to experience the 5th annual STARS of Cabernet, the flagship wine event produced by LearnAboutWine. The Five Diamond Peninsula Beverly Hills hosts STARS of Cabernet LA on Wednesday, November 13th, 2013. “Cabernet is the most important wine in the marketplace,” said Ian Blackburn, Founder of LearnAboutWine, the company behind the 5th annual STARS of Cabernet event. Cabernet stands apart because of its market appeal, cost, and collectibility. “The number of new small producers is increasing exponentially,” explains Mr. Blackburn. “the majority of the Cabernet producers live in Northern California, so we created STARS of Cabernet to bring together the best Cabernet producers for an efficient showcase to further their success in Southern California.”
The select wineries pouring at STARS of Cabernet bring wines that are precious and expensive. “These wines are phenomenal,” said Mr.
Blackburn. “These are wines that get previewed at STARS of Cabernet before they are reviewed in the Wine Spectator…
some you may have not heard of yet, but will in months and years to come.”
Mr. Blackburn wants to champion the KING of California grapes in a challenged marketplace. With the economy being weaker, he wants to help the marketplace connect with the smaller producers of merit. For the first year ever, STARS of Cabernet starts off with a Cabernet Seminar featuring special guests Jean Hoefliger, of Alpha Omega Winery, and Aaron Pott, of Pott Wine. This seminar will be invitation only for top rated sommeliers and high impact press, as Mr. Hoefliger and Mr. Pott taste 6 fine Cabernets while discussing the grape, the market, and the current issues facing fine wine. After the seminar, doors of the event open to the trade. “Wineries appreciate the high quality of our already established trade relationships.
