Winter Wine Feast

It's winter. The days are short, and the nights are long. It's cold, it's dark, and the trees are bare. What better time to get together with friends, close the doors, draw the curtains, and celebrate life with a six-course vegetable feast and some truly extraordinary wines? We'll be beating back the winter blues at this amazing dinner featuring wine from Le Petit Domaine de Gimios, one of the most amazing wine makers in France.

Anne-Marie Lavaysse revived this abandoned Languedoc farm in 1993 and discovered that it contained a bunch of 100+ year-old vines. She added some of her own vines mostly rare French varietals that no one works with anymore, some of which are near extinction and began to produce wine. But her vines aren't trained like a modern vineyard, they're bush vines that grow wild.

On top of that, Anne-Marie adds absolutely nothing to her wines not even the sulfur or copper used in most organic agriculture. There are no additives or preservatives used in the vinification. This results in incredibly tiny batches of the finest natural wine in all of France.

Every single one of the six courses will be paired with one of Anne-Marie's wines, and our favorite natural wine fanatic, Camille Rivière, will be here to tell you about each and every one of them.

Dinner is $125 (which includes tip, but not tax).

Tickets are on sale now.

This is the perfect event to share with someone special this holiday season, a way to remind you both that even when the weather is cold, and the world is bleak, and relatives are bearing down on you like a pirate ship, there is still joy to be found in good food and great wine.
