EVENTS THAT ARE HISTORY

BONACCORSI & LORING WINE COMPANY WINEMAKERS DINNER

THE EVENT: five wines with food matching
THE DATE: 13 March 2005
THE TIME:
THE PLACE: SIX89

We are honored to welcome two cutting edge winemakers from the California central coast. Jenne Bonaccorsi of Bonaccorsi and Brian Loring of Loring Wine Company will be bringing some of their best wines of the 2003 vintage.

Both winerys produced their first vintage in 1999, and both have received much acclaim. Loring produces pinot noir and pinot noir only; while Bonaccorsi produces chardonnay, syrah and pinot noir. Both winemakers stress a style that is more hands-off. The fruit truly speaks for itself as the wines are gently produced.

A five-wine dinner with food matching will be prepared by the SIX89 Chef/Owner Mark Fischer. The price is an accessible $68.90 per person, plus tax & gratuity. Seats are limited; call Restaurant SIX89 promptly for reservations; 970.963.6890.
