Water Separates the people of the world.  Wine unites them.

We just received a collection of wines that had a bunch of cool stuff from the decade of the 1980’s.  This was the decade when I went to high school, so I have fond memories of each vintage on the table.  These wines are a blast from the past and since we have such a great collection of wines from around the world, I have decided to host this event as a blind tasting.

Just in case you can’t make it I have also included every bottle of wine on this offering that we have in the store from the 1980’s so you can curl up to a bottle of 1980’s Burgundy and enjoy your favorite movie from this decade like: Fast Times at Ridgemont High, ET, Risky Business, Caddy Shack, Scarface, Back to the future, The breakfast Club, Top Gun, Platoon, Ferris Buehlers day off, Fatal Attraction, Full Metal Jacket, Dirty Dancing, The Princess Bride, Beetlejoice, A fish called Wanda, Coming to America and Bill and Teds Excellent Adventure just to name a few of mine...

Join us as we experience 14 wines from the 1980’s along with a special meal prepared by chef Toni Lampasone.  There are only 14 seats available for this tasting; the fee is $250 per person + tax, for reservations call 954-523-9463 or e-mail andy@winewatch.com.  Please let us know when you make your reservation if you have an food allergies and chefs Toni and Dani will be happy to accommodate you.
