The $10 per-person event is reflective of new trends in beverages across the nation for "innovation" wines that are good-tasting and easy to drink immediately upon opening.

The only location in Fullerton offering a wine pairing with this accessible approach and at this price point, visitors of the new informal monthly series will enjoy 3-4 wines from a featured vintner with three pairings of hearty, thoughtful, seasonal and local small plates as part of this unique downtown Fullerton experience:

April 17 - Southern Classics paired with J. Lohr Vineyards & Wines

  • Chardonnay with Voodoo Shrimp
  • Sauvignon Blanc with Tomato Bisque and Gouda and Cheddar Parmesan Crusted Grilled Cheese

We proudly continue to show a newer, gentler face of our restaurant and bar through this series."
