Hook & Ladder Wine Dinner Rescheduled!

The new date will be Wednesday April 3rd @ 6:30 PM.

Josh DeLoach will be our guest for this special dinner.

After tasting many Russian River Valley wines recently, many of our favorites were these H&L wines. From Russian River Valley, Sonoma CA. they all stay true to the varietal while showcasing the chalky minerality this area is known for. The warm California days shine through these wines with bright fruit flavors that perfectly balance the chalk and flint notes. We are excited to welcome Josh DeLoach, assistant wine maker and marketing director who will help us all understand what went into these affordable, food friendly wines. We will be taking orders on the wines you taste, I know you will love them and the low price! I have designed a simple menu that will allow both the wine and the food to be enjoyed equally. Please call 828-456-1930 to reserve your seats, only 24 seats available.
