Tonight! We have some classic French beauties for your holiday table (or kitchen, or wherever). Anyone who knows me is already aware of my deep love and passion for the wines of France. So it should come as no surprise how I’m feeling about this evening’s tasting: Pumped.
Charles Neal has been importing French wines at a high level for decades and his collection of amazing producers has made him a low-key legend in the trade. His selections have become one of my most reliable sources for excellent, classically styled French wines at astonishingly reasonable prices. It’s about time we feature them and pour them for you!
To do that, we have Andres Larin, who sells the portfolio here in the North Bay. (He also used to work at Avinage and many of you already know and love him!) And he’s showing some doozies. Champagne. Red Burgundy. Southern Rhone. Boom.
4-7pm tonight. Don’t skip this one!
