ABOUT ABOUT

In the Beginning... there was Wine! Let's taste it.

Wine has been around for a looooong time, since at least the 6th millennium BC!  Where did it originate, you ask? Around the Caucasus, actually. So, we'll sample wines from Georgia - where the earliest-known wine has been found, Armenia - where the earliest "winery" has been found, Turkey - home of a bajillion types of grapes...!  

This tasting will be led by Jill Weber, Jet's owner and our Wining Archaeologist.  Let her guide you through 5 wines and their unique histories.  This is a new year, so we have a new tasting series: Time-Traveler Tastings! Our tastings will transport you to the past as we dig deep into the history of the wine, the region, and the people who make it. Each class features 5 wines that we taste while discovering the fun facts and peculiar histories of each wine’s locale.

Ticket sales start 2 weeks prior to the event, check back to see what we'll be pouring and to purchase tickets.

BONUS: A limited quantity of these bottles will be available for sale to-go!

Your ticket entitles you to our 5-wine tasting plus light snacks, as well as 15% off your evening's bar tab AND special pricing on bottles of the evening's wines (for to-go sales). Seating is limited.
