bordeaux blanc, please.

i forgot to mention in my last post that we are having an awesome white bordeaux tasting this coming tuesday, september 16 at 7PM as part of our Tuesday Night Tasting Series. Bordeaux is known, of course, for its reds, but it also makes dynamic whites as well, based on the Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon grapes. We'll look at Entre-Deux-Mer, Graves, Pessac-Leognan and maybe even a Sauternes. as always--Chef Connal will pair four appetizers with the wine and present a cooking demonstration. all that for 30 bucks (includes tax and tip!) i hope to see you there!

in other news: i have leaped to a 1-0 record in les zyg's highly competitive fantasy football league. i look forward to my match-up in week 2 with Dan--one of the managers of our sister restaurant, Sorriso, for bragging rights on South Street. wish me luck.

nothing goes better with the sweet taste of victory than a fine glass of sauternes,
