Thursday, May 30, 2013 | The Sorting Table – Eclectic & Exemplary $20
The Sorting Table is a modern interpretation of a fine wine importer. Founded in April of 2006, the company brings a new level of selection and information to the distribution of premium estates from Argentina, Australia, New Zealand, California, Oregon and France. All their wineries are benchmarks for their appellations, terroir-driven boutiques that control every step of the wine making process. We’ll browse the Sorting Table’s stellar portfolio, including: Provence’s Domaine des Triennes (co-owned by Domaine de la Romanée Conti!), Seresin (killer New Zealand producer), Cielo y Tierra (maker of premium Argentine Malbecs), Trig Point (Sonoma reds by flying winemaker Nick Goldschmidt). We’ll happily sort through this fab line-up from the Sorting Table!
Thursday, June 13, 2013 Bourgeois Family Selections $20
Join the dashing Jean-Philippe Bourgeois as we explore Provence Rose, Bordeaux, Beaujolais,
Côtes-duRhône and a few from the South of France through his collection of small French producers. Philippe is well-travelled, highly educated and absolutely charming when discussing the merits of French wine, make sure to join us for this one!
Wednesday, June 19, 2013 All the Stars Aligned – Penfold’s Luxury Tasting $45

DLynn Proctor, Penfolds Winemaking Ambassador in the Americas and our own Master Sommelier Madeline Triffon will lead us through a tasting of current releases of the Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz based wines from Penfolds luxury portfolio including: Bin 389, Bin 407, and Bin 707. The 100 point 2008 vintage of Penfold’s Grange will be the star of the show. We’ll provide a flavorful sampling of light bites to complete the tasting experience. The chance to taste the very best of Australia winemaking is a rare treat today; we hope you’ll join us for it! Tickets are available online soon.
Thursday, June 20, 2013 Tuscany’s Il Molino di Grace $25
Join Special Guest Tim Grace as we sample Sangiovese wines from Tuscany. American-born, London-based Frank Grace purchased a 19th-century windmill (“molino”), adjacent barn, villa and vineyards in the heart of the Panzano zone of Chianti Classico. The Panzano estate has seen grape-growing for the past 350 years. In the words of Frank Grace’s son, Tim: “The Grace family philosophy is simple: being true to the rich tradition of Tuscan winemaking and its unique terroir.” In addition, Prosecco, Vermentino, Verdicchio and Soave from the Empson portfolio will be sampled.
