Wine Riot New York

Wine Riot is your all access pass to hundreds of new wines. With two parts education and one part revolution, Wine Riot has reinvented the “wine tasting” for the thirsty and curious. Grab a glass and hit the floor — it’s you unleashed against 250 wines from across the globe. Travel the world of wine all under one roof and tackle things you’ve never tried before. We’ve rallied up a team of die-hard wine experts to bring you the brain juice: interactive booths and crash courses loaded with tips and tricks for conquering the wine world. Fueling your night of conquest is a tireless DJ, photo booth, temporary tattoos, and a few thousand of your closest friends. The best part is, we made an app that tracks your favorite wines and shows you where to buy them later, arming you with all the tools needed for total wine domination.

Munch on some mouthwatering food pairings for a few extra bucks (between $5-10).

California’s annual Family Winemakers tasting

The event is back in its 22nd year on September 9th & 10th with the debut of new wine members, gourmet food offerings, and the launch of an exclusive wine lounge. Held at San Francisco’s Fort Mason Center Festival Pavilion, attendees will taste and experience dozens of varietals and hundreds of wines as presented by the Family Winemakers of California (FWC) wine association. Since its inception in 1991, and as the largest of three California tasting events, the San Francisco Family Winemakers tasting has always been a unique opportunity to experience the winemaking craftsmanship of vintners from across the state. This year’s winery lineup includes well-known favorites and smaller boutique wineries waiting to be discovered, all representing the vast and exhilarating world of wine in California.

Back for its second year, the Family Winemakers tasting event will also include the “Taste & Take” onsite buying program, allowing members of the trade and consumers to purchase bottles from participating wineries at the event.

Seasonal Cocktails – Boothby Center

2 hrs – This class teaches the culinary aspects of utilizing fresh seasonal ingredients in the creation and presentation of exceptional cocktails. It takes into account the most current information from our farmers as to what is ripe NOW, what is on its way out of season and what we have coming up soon. By staying in contact with our farmers markets and the seasonality of ingredients, we can continually keep our cocktails fresh and appropriate for the times.

We will include a brief review of tools and techniques, but the focus will be on the drinks and concepts. A basic knowledge of bar skills would be helpful but not required (this is a good follow up class for those who have taken our Mixology 101 class).

Class takes place on the LAST FRIDAY of every month, from 7pm to 9pm, and may be taught with or by different instructors / guests of Scott’s. Scott’s book, Artisanal Cocktails, will be available for purchase at the class.
