Tortoise Creek’s wines epitomize the value-oriented wine making of their home: the Languedoc, Southern France’s laid-back answer to Bordelais stodginess.

David Butanis from Boston Wines will be pouring a variety of Tortoise Creek offerings. At around $12 a bottle, these wines are already killer values, but during the tasting a case purchase of Tortoise Creek wines comes with a 20% discount.

Saturday, April 25th: Fire and Wine

posted on 25 April 2009 by jeff

While drinking a bottle of wine, have you ever felt like there was something missing?   Neither have I.  The folks down at the Diablo Glass School, however, have gone out of their way to improve on alcohol’s favourite son, (that’s right, wine is best: screw you Champale).  For the low, low price of $35, attendees will get to quaff french wine to their heart’s content while watching some of Boston’s finest glass artisans practice their trade.

Josh Eaton, International Man of Leisure, and also President of Terroir Wines LLC will be at the event pouring wines from his Languedoc selection.  And though you won’t be able to take the wines home with you, you can place an order for whichever wines please you and the downTown delivery van will bring them to your very door.

There are a limited number of tickets, so make sure you order yours quickly.
