About this Event
Join us for an intimate guided tasting featuring four French wines, thoughtfully paired bites, and plenty of time to connect.
The evening begins with Champagne and a communal cheese board, followed by three guided wine and food pairings from Burgundy and the Northern Rhône.
You’ll learn where the wines come from, why the pairings work, and how to taste wine without overcomplicating it.
No wine expertise required. Just come curious.
Featured wines include:
Ayala Brut Majeur
Christian Moreau Chablis
Domaine Chanson Bourgogne
E. Guigal Crozes-Hermitage
Limited seating available.
THE PAIRINGS
Ayala Brut Majeur
Champagne, France
Welcome pour served alongside a communal cheese board.
Bright, celebratory, and approachable, Champagne sets the tone for an evening meant to be shared.
Christian Moreau Chablis
Chablis, Burgundy, France
Paired with: Crab cake, lemon crème fraîche, and chive
The crisp acidity and mineral character of Chablis cut through the richness of the crab while complementing its delicate flavor.
Domaine Chanson Bourgogne
Burgundy, France
Paired with: Triple Truffle Pizza
Earthy Burgundy meets the savory depth of truffle for a pairing built for autumn.
E. Guigal Crozes-Hermitage
Northern Rhône, France
Paired with: Braised short rib over polenta
Dark fruit, pepper, and savory Syrah create a richer final pairing and a natural conclusion to the tasting.
COME CURIOUS
The Wednesday Pour is not a wine class.
It is an opportunity to taste something interesting, learn something useful, meet someone new, and spend a Wednesday evening around a table together.
Come alone, bring a friend, or make it the beginning of your night at The Alley.
Four wines. Small bites. Good company.
