Over a decade in...it's fun that wine can still surprise us every single week. Lost Boy is one of those winemakers that made an impact immediately when we were introduced just a few months ago. Owner Trevor DeRuisé is a retired American professional mountain bike racer who became a winemaker in South Africa, creating a boutique brand focusing on cool-climate, small-batch wines from the Cape Agulhas region. His expressive wines embody a simpler, nature-connected lifestyle, and we can't wait to share them with you.

Bring a partner, bring a crush, bring your bestie—or just come solo and let the wine be your date. Either way, it’s going to be a night full of South African charm.

Get your tickets early here.

An industry-focused deep dive into one of beer’s most historic and tightly controlled traditions.

Expect thoughtful guidance from Merchant Du Vin (importer for such bangers as Orval, Rochefort, and Westmalle), practical context for service and storytelling, and plenty of time to simply enjoy some of the most balanced, age-worthy beers in the world—good beer, good company, and no sales pitch. $20 tickets for industry, $25 for non-industry.

Often maligned, seldom understood…but there’s a reason why most sommeliers call it their favorite grape. Riesling is an absolute chameleon, capable of showing up in wildly different profiles based on terroir and winemaking styles. Come taste this grape in a guided tasting hosted by one if Riesling’s most fierce advocates - George Rumpf of Weingut Kruger-Rumpf out of Nahe, Germany. George is responsible for many of our favorite German wines here at the shop, and it was our absolute pleasure to visit him and his family earlier this year. George will be pouring four of his own vastly different Rieslings during this hour — do not miss this opportunity to learn and enjoy some world-class wines.

THIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT.

First timers to Frenchy’s but veteran musicians Maxwell Butterfield and Emmanuel Howard join us on Thanksgiving weekend for a bout of jazz here at the shop. We can’t wait for the immaculate vibes they bring with them — show up early to grab a seat.
