Feast offers a wine tasting every Saturday, another on the last Sunday of each month, and occasional wine dinners. Subscribe to our email list and you'll be the first to know about all of them.
This week's wine tasting features two reds and two whites from the northerly end of the Italian boot, and they're each excellent food wines. It turns out they're tasty to sip on their own as well, but we'll let you decide for yourselves how you'll best put them to use.
If you're ever remotely in doubt about a bottle of Old World wine you're inspecting, but you've never tasted it, turn the bottle around. Does it say "Imported by Kermit Lynch?" You've just virtually guaranteed yourself an exceptional experience. Come find out why
Wine fashions change frequently, but we at Feast always fall deeply for a classic grape of the Rhone: we love you, Syrah.
Gone are the days when the majority of wines from Chile and Argentina were strictly bargain bin plonk, and this tasting will offer you four reds- two from Argentina and two from Chile- who'll undoubtedly show you that firsthand.
Every now and again, we get the chance to put on a wine dinner with some really good wines. And once in a while, there's a clever and knowledgeable sort who puts on a dinner with us. What's more, we occasionally get to do a dinner with wines that have an excellent quality-to-price ratio. It's not often, however, that we get all three in one dinner.
Every now and again, we like to offer a smattering of wines from everyplace. Stylistically, the wines are everyplace: Old World, New World, red, white, crisp, rich- you name it, we'll be pouring it.
Now that winter is here and it's a brisk 75 degrees, Kevin is pulling out the big, bold reds.
While the last Sunday of the month is usually the day we offer our higher-end wine tasting, we've consolidated our tastings this week, as we'll just be too busy getting ready for New Year's Eve to do our Last Sunday tasting. So on Saturday, December 30, we'll offer you our Last Sunday tasting on Saturday.
It's only fitting that, the wine tasting coming at the tail end of the week, this week's wines come at the tail end of the meal.
While New Year's Eve is sparkling wine's moment to shine, it's a great gift to bring to whatever holiday parties you've been invited to, and a nice reception wine before everyone's been seated for Christmas or Hannukah dinner.
