Blind Tasting (Every First Friday!) – Friday October 5th, 6-9pm

First Friday October 5th, 6-9pm we are tasting Blind. Blind means the wines will be brown-bagged so you don’t know what you’re tasting until after. I ask that you be here at 6, 7 or 8pm as we will taste and reveal the wines in groups. This tasting is $15/person; no tickets necessary. Winesmith sells wine retail & by-the-glass, especially during tastings. Cheers!

Bang for the Buck $11.99 – Friday October 12th, 6-9pm

Six wines with a theme every Friday between 6-9pm. Winesmith always sells wine retail & by-the-glass, especially during tastings. Cheers!

Wow! What a great crowd at last Wednesdays CASA benefit wine tasting. We raised over $1,000 to help victims of domestic violence. Thanks everyone who attended, CASA and Dan of Eat This! for the beautiful and tasty charcuterie.

If you’d like to be notified of future wine tastings please email me at stpetewinesmith@gmail.com and I will put you on the list. You can also “Subscribe” to events on the Winesmith Facebook page. (Just “liking” the page won’t do. You have to SUBSCRIBE.) 😉
