An eagle eye on wine


Former Philadelphia Eagles coach Dick Vermeil will host an Oct. 5 wine tasting dinner at the Christiana Hilton.

Vermeil, who led the St. Louis Rams to the Super Bowl, grew up in a Calistoga, Calif., wine making family. His great-grandfather, Jean Louis Vermeil, and his father, also named Jean Louis Vermeil, made wine. Vermeil will uncork his 2002 Jean Louis Vermeil Frediani Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon at the dinner. The cost is $95 per person. Tickets are limited to between 100 to 120 people. Call Kreston Liquor Mart at 652-3792 for information.
