Wine & Food Pairings:

An Educational Series

Hosted by Purple's in-house experts: Director of Liquids Christene Prentice and Culinary Director Harry Mills. An intimate, cocktail party atmosphere will allow Prentice and Mills to mingle and impart knowledge with all attendees. Events will take place on Saturday or Sunday afternoons at our locations in Kirkland, Seattle, and Woodinville. Each will feature four to five pours, perfectly paired to complementary dishes.

Remaining tastings include:

Saturday, July 11th, 1:30 - 3:30pm in Kirkland

Cool Whites/Light Reds - $40

Summer cuisine needs summer wine. What makes a good barbecue wine or, at the other end of the spectrum, a cucumber salad wine?

Sunday, September 13th, 1:30 - 3:30pm in Seattle

Autumnal Wines - $50

As the year's new vintages are being bottled, this tasting offers an exploration of wine that goes with the bountiful autumn produce.

Sunday, October 4th, 1:30 - 3:30pm in Woodinville

By-The-Fire Wines - $60

"Purple teeth" wines, with or without food, these wines are decadent and totally over-the-top; just in time for chilly weather.
