Occasionally, we’re graced with a winemaker or winery representative who’s passing through Tucson. When they do, we’ll highlight their wines with a special dinner of four or five courses with a guest speaker- a winemaker, an importer or a winery representative. Watch this space to know about upcoming dinners, or make it easier on yourself by subscribing to our email list.

A lot of people know about Domaine Serene- there’s a big, beautiful winery with opulent tasting rooms and guest houses and they make gorgeous, Burgundian-style wine. We strolled next door, though, and there was a vineyard with a modest, log-cabin […]

Dearest Feastlings, Wine dinners happen in Tucson on occasion, but seldom when it’s still a hundred degrees outside. This is predominantly because winemakers, marketing directors and wine folk in general pretty much get to decide when they’re headed where they’re headed. That is, if you can go sell wine to my brother in Colorado in […]
