Wine Tastings at CRU-Grand View Lodge

Millennials are wild about wine!  The Cru is one of the premier eateries in the Brainerd Lakes Area with a decent wine selection.  They are also having wine tastings this summer.  I recently read about the Cru in Minneapolis St. Paul Magazine's Spring article on Brainerd Lakes A to Z.

Here is the write up:

WINE (AT CRU)

“I love everything about the country—the tamarack-fringed sunsets, the crystal canopy of stars, the broken opera of the loons—but the wine lists bore me. So, since one of the chief diversions of my evenings are finding something new, something surprising, something even, occasionally, thrilling, to swirl around the glass; I like Cru. It’s part of Grand View, and has excellent food, but, as befits its name, also has serious wine. It’s got well-chosen sancerres, affordable champagne from sustainable producers, legitimately cheap Austrian gruner veltliner, lots of top-rated American chardonnay and cabernet sauvignon, and a whole bunch of rare high-dollar collectibles for those celebrating reeling in very big fish. What’s more, they’ll pack-up what you don’t finish so you can drink it in a deck chair with your feet in the sand and the opera of the country in your ears.”23521 Nokomis Ave, Nisswa, 218-963-8756, grandviewlodge.com
