EL GAUCHO TACOMA
Wednesday, November 4th | 6pm
$295/person, plus 22% service charge and tax
Perhaps you’ve heard the story, almost mythical by now: a young French vigneron arrives in a little-known town called Walla Walla and falls for a few acres of stone-covered farmland everyone else had written off. Christophe Baron turned that field of stones into the acclaimed Cayuse Vineyards, and the rest, as they say, is history.
Join us for an elegant wine dinner exploring the wines born from that story: Cayuse, Horsepower, No Girls, Hors Catégorie, and Champagne Christophe Baron. Christophe himself will guide guests through the evening, paired with a menu prepared by the El Gaucho Tacoma culinary team.
Guests can also add on a tasting of the Hors Catégorie Vineyard Syrah for an additional charge. Pours are limited, and each one purchased earns an entry into a drawing for a bottle of the Hors Catégorie, given away at the end of the dinner.
