Friday 1/25/13

You know that somewhat obscure or under-
appreciated book/movie/band that you
absolutely LOVE? So much so that you
can’t help but talk about it, beating
the drum for it relentlessly?

We’ve got a grape like that.
It’s called Syrah.

Yes, we know. There’s a few that you’ve
become acquainted with, thanks to us
always having one or two on the bar, and
talking ’em up.

But we really, really, really want to
SHOW YOU how delicious Syrah, and Syrah-
based wines, can be.

Which brings us to your tasting event
for Friday, January 25th. $10, any time
from 4-10, includes snacks.

These are the wines that will have you
singing “Que Syrah, Syrah:”
