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.
As our winter friends begin to drift back to their summer haunts and the day gets a teensy bit warmer, our thoughts turn to white wines- a little cleaner and lighter, a little lower alcohol so we can maybe have that afternoon glass when the thermometer hits 80° and not doze off before dinner's on the table.
If you couldn't join us for the dinner with Kent Callaghan and Todd Bostock on the 28th, don't believe you've missed the boat altogether tasting Arizona wines.
Dear Feastlings, When Spanish Jesuit missionaries came to Arizona in the 16th century, they planted grapes for their sacramental wine, and likely some for enjoyment as well. That said, as late as the 1980’s, 400 years hadn’t necessarily improved the quality available amongst Arizona wines too significantly. Long have wine aficionados turned up their figurative […]
Hello, Feastlings. This month’s Last Sunday tasting is here to show you the great strides that have been made in South American winemaking in recent years. Remember when all you could expect from that Chilean wine in the grocery store was that it wouldn’t break the bank and wouldn’t impress a soul? Those days are […]
Dear Feastlings, This Saturday, as the weather takes one last dip into cooler temperatures before we ready ourselves for seven months of heat, Kevin pulls corks on four different pink wines from four disparate locales.You’re sure to be taken with one or another of them, and they all offer up a lot of refreshment without […]
This week, Kevin will be opening four "little brothers": wines which are either a winery's second label, or that come from the outskirts of an esteemed wine region, or whose style mimics that of a more substantial and prestigious wine, but which are every bit as much of a value.
This week we visit a varietal that we pretty much universally agree here at Feast is tragically underappreciated: Chenin Blanc.
It may be the Greeks who brought winemaking with them to the Roman Empire, but doggone it if the Romans didn't raise the bar. This Saturday, Kevin is opening bottles from some of the winemaking regions with which you're abundantly familiar, but also from spots you may not already know well.
Opportunity knocks once again when Fabio Longano comes to Tucson. He'll be bringing five truly exceptional Italian wines with him, and we'll be pairing a dish with each wine. It all promises to be pretty fabulous.
This month's Last Sunday tasting offers up mostly German stuff, but not everyone knows that Loosen Brothers also has interests in French and domestic wineries as well, namely Roche de Bellene and J. Christopher.
