Spring Organic Wine Dinner

Spring Organic Wine Dinner

Join us Thursday, April 27th for an all organic wine dinner with long time friend Michelle L'Don of Mountain People's Wine Distributing, Inc, the leading organic wine distributor in California for over twenty years. Their mission includes a belief in working "with small family wineries, importers, and farmers who are committed to producing the highest quality organic wine while caring for the planet and the palate"

 

John and Nicole Bojanowski purchased the fifteen acre Clos de Gravillas more than twenty years ago and began then their journey of making wine to best reflect their vineyards' limestone gravel terroir where grapes have been grown for hundreds of years. The winery lies just south of the Black Mountains in the Minervois region of southwestern France and its nearly 1000' elevation provides both cool evening winds and hot summer temperatures necessary for retaining acidity and balancing it. 

Eric & Ariana are thrilled to pair 5 courses---sure to include fava beans, spring onion, artichokes, asparagus, strawberries, rhubarb and possibly morel mushrooms--with these complex, balanced and organic French wines. 

This dinner will be held at 6:30pm on our covered & heated back patio. 

Space is limited!

Urban Legend (Gluten Free!) Holiday Winemaker Dinner

The East Bay has been referred to as "the most densely concentrated urban wine region in the nation" and Steve and Marilee Shaffer, through Urban Legend Cellars

contribute to the exciting once-prospect and now-reality of wine tasting via public transit. They source certified organic grapes whenever possible, produce certain wines that are only available in refillable containers and do all of this in their West Oakland warehouse near Jack London Square in Oakland. 

Eric Tucker is looking forward to creating a delicious five course *gluten free* meal to pair with these local and sustainable wines. Steve Shaffer said, "The grapes don't care where they're made into wine". We are just glad these two are the ones making it and that we have Eric to prepare the food. We will be offering 18 seats only at the winemaker's table for this special dinner on our heated and covered patio. Join us on Wednesday, December 21!
