Best Of Our Current French Wines
Tuesday, February 23, 7:30PM $60.00.
Tonight we will delve into the multifaceted multitude of current-release French wine, from the Loire Valley, Alsace and the Rhone Valley to the Languedoc & Roussillon, Burgundy, Bordeaux, Champagne and beyond. Even amidst an international surge in wine quality, French wine is still at the forefront; the range of delicious, well-balanced and affordable options has never been greater! To find out firsthand why French wine still can’t be beat, join host Jason Manson for an enjoyable and educational survey of world-class reds, whites, sparklers and stickies.
Wine House Blind Tasting Round Table
Wednesday, March 3, 7:30PM $85.00.
Join us for a new monthly seminar to sharpen your palate and improve your wine knowledge. A few Wine House employees meet monthly to taste blind and critically evaluate, in an intimate and formal setting, a group of six wines with a common theme. The outside interest in joining this group has been significant enough that we decided to replicate these tastings. You can read about wine your entire life and never gain the same kind of knowledge that comes with regularly tasting a diverse selection of bottlings. Add to this the objectivity of analyzing the wine blind, systematic note taking using the WSET Diploma SAT (Systematic Approach to Tasting), and a healthy discussion with like-minded peers and the retention of information increases exponentially. Take your palate to the next level and start tasting like a pro!
Friday Night Spirits-Bourbon
Friday, March 5, 7:30PM $50.00.
Enjoy a fantastic way to wind down at the end of the work week with a series of Friday evening spirits tastings. Come have some fun, meet some people, learn about and most importantly, taste a different category of spirits every few weeks. Tonight we focus on bourbon. We’ll taste all types and styles of bourbon in a variety of price ranges. Host Mark Schwarz will share his expertise in a comfortable, casual atmosphere. Prices vary based on the cost of the products selected for the evening.
