Upcoming Bordeaux Dinner - FIG, Santa Monica - April 16th!
I always appreciate hosting some of the extreme dinners we produce.
This time, it's a little more casual, and very much an intimate night of great Bordeaux.
Join me for my Bordeaux Dinner | FIG at the Fairmont: Thursday, April 16th at 6:30PM—a refined, thoughtfully curated evening designed for those who appreciate wine beyond the surface... as we explore all things Bordeaux. Planned for the inside of FIG Restaurant's beautiful private dining room space. Currently, the meal with wine is less than $300 but will increase in price soon.
Beyond the multicourse meal
(Dinner will be selected from a limited menu on the night of the event.)
