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.
When summer really gets going, we often find ourselves in the market for something a little less substantial; those wines that weigh in at 16% alcohol that supremely satisfied in the winter months have begun to hold less appeal. Now, we're reaching for clean, crisp, easy-drinking wines that pair well with sitting on the porch and watching the monsoons roll in.
This week's tasting features four wines that those of you who've been coming to the tastings will recognize, but you won't know what they taste like. Why? They're all brand new vintages.
Bonjour, Feastlings. With Bastille Day just around the corner, Kevin’s decided to open up four wines from France. You may recollect from history lessons that they helped us win the American Revolution, and what with Bastille Day being so close to our own Independence Day, we thought it fitting to remind everyone about the deliciousness […]
Many of you are aware of Kevin's fondness for wordplay, and of his even greater fondness of making me wince in pain at his wordplay. Today he triumphs by naming this Saturday's tasting: "Red, White and Rosé can you see," a tragically misguided attempt at blending a wine tasting with patriotism.
It's happened yet again: the first hot wind of the season has arrived. No one dreads a hot wind like I do, but even if you dread it half as much as I, you need a reprieve.
I'm not going to go on at great length about this, because, well, this tasting is already sold out. But just so you're aware, it's a red and a white Burgundy, each poured next to a New World counterpart. Let this be a lesson to you: the early bird gets the worm, and he who hesitates is lost.
While Napa justifiably lays claim to being the domestic home of Cabernet Sauvignon, there are a few reasons we don't all immediately reach for a Napa Cab when the time comes to open a bottle.
As I write this, it's 107 degrees outside, and so if you're anything like me, you're thinking about lightening it up right now, be it food or wine. This week, there's a light red and three refreshing whites that are perfect for your summer consumption, plus a pun that Kevin keeps in his back pocket- "A Pinot for your thoughts."
While last week's tasting was delightful, it was ultimately all red wine, with which there is nothing wrong. However, for some of us, red wine with beef isn't our go-to when it's 105 degrees out. With that in mind, here's a reminder that everything we throw on the grill isn't exactly red wine-friendly.
This month’s Last Sunday tasting ushers in summer with wines that originate from island producers. Even reds that hail from islands offer up salt spray and freshness that presage the summer months, and all of them should inhabit your summertime wine selection.
