Wine Educational Series Back-to-School Bottles

Join our Wine Director, Will Jones, as we taste through a flight of four wines to sip on as we get back into the school year. Instead of looking at the hourglass of the school clock, we are going to compare Hourglass sauvignon blanc from California with the Ranga Ranga sauvignon blanc out of Marlborough, New Zealand. Following this, we dive into Chemistry pinot noir from Oregon and finish off with some Division Wine Company gamay. Our Sous Chef Emily Sherrer has crafted small bite pairings for each wine!
