I missed the last couple of years of UNLVino, and was so glad to be back! The food seems better than ever, with various tables set up around the room. The balsamic on the tomato and mozzarella skewers was very nice, and I was pleasantly surprised at the variety of cheeses. My companions kept raving about the shrimp!
On to the wine! There were quite a few very nice offerings with a really diverse selection. I couldn't pass up the Amarone, because it's Italian and it's the very best (inside family Pocchia joke). I fell in love with the Spanish wines from Ontanon! Black Bird was a nice gem as well. There was a long table on the side wall that I with I could've spent more time tasting through the huge selection, but alas there were so many wines and so little time.
It was great to be back, and look forward to next year. Dum vivimus, vivamus!
