Kermit Lynch Friday Food and Fun!

Grande Krewe Friends!

Spaces Still Available!

We're excited to announce our next Friday Food and Fun evening featuring: Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant!

Join us Friday, October 14th from 5:30 to 8:00! We'll have twelve of our favorite French and Italian wines from one of the most renowned importers of high-quality, small production wines!

--- Kermit Lynch was raised in San Luis Obispo, but his name has become synonymous with French and Italian wines. In 1972, with a $5,000 loan and maybe a bit of gumption, this writer/musician opened Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant with thirty-five cases of wine stacked on the floor. Attracted by the Old World wine cultures of Europe, Kermit became a retailer, distributor, and national importer for authentic wines that express their terroir. Much like his close friends, the late food writer Richard Olney and Chez Panisse’s founder Alice Waters, Kermit’s influence has been enduring. He has had so much success shining the spotlight on small, artisan producers that he has won two James Beard awards and was knighted by the French government with their prestigious “Legion d’Honneur.” ---

Greg from Artisan Fine Wines will be educating us on these fabulous selections and discussing the history of the wines as well as the winemaking regions! This is a great way to taste and learn about these fantastic wines and producers! At $45 per person, these spots will sell out fast so sign up now!
