Friday Wine Tasting: Abandon Sip!

TONIGHT! Friday, February 19th

5:30 - 8:30 pm

$15/person for 5 wines + artisanal cheeses from Auntie Em's

So, one of the wines we're pouring tonight (pictured above) is the 2nd label of a beloved chardonnay producer in Napa.  The cover story is, a commercial ship hit ground and the smart sailors aboard lost the ship but saved the wine.  There is a REAL story but upon pain of death, we're not allowed to say who made this wine.  All we can say is some really talented people got ahold of some really good and really tasty juice. 

And this bubbly...man oh man...we predict it will be the first bubbly to knock our beloved J. Laurens off the hill as top-selling bubbly in the store. 

And the reds?  Well in addition to our gushing above about the Cheverny, we have found 3 new Argentinian reds under $15 that blew us completely away....one was the Siete Cuchillos Malbec poured last week, and the other two are being poured tonight.
