My Global Hustle

The Summer of Riesling 2012 begins on Tuesday, June 19th*

Borrowing a page from Phil Collins in 1985  

(he played both the London AND the Washington Concerts for Live Aid…on the same day),
we are going to go big this year…hosting FOUR Riesling Dinners, all on the same night.

  

Each dinner will involve four courses with matching wines,
the full menus for which can be seen at the end of this missive.

Even better: each dinner will have a producer/ producers to guide the conversation along.

   

 

The 4 SoR 2012 Dinners are:  

 

Hearth Restaurant 

7:00pm / $95.00 / 28 seats
