Welcome to our virtual store! Make reservations for special events, tastings, dinners and more. We hope you'll join us for A Proper Glass soon!
Join us for another installation of our wine education series, in which we host inspiring professionals in the wide & wonderful world of wine production. In November, we're taking you throughout France's Rhone River Valley - a region where Syrah & Grenache hail supreme and where the diversity of landscape & cultural traditions are reflected in the winemaking. We'll explore the diversity of this region, learn what makes it unique and taste some wines that will pair perfectly with your holiday table. Our guest host and wine educator, the knowledgeable & charismatic, Danielle Chiasson, has selected some incredible wines to highlight this part of France. The presentation will include five wines and light food pairings.
Jake Assaf
Certified Sommelier
Somm (n.) - a shortened reference for sommelier, a trained and knowledgeable wine professional. SOMM (film) - a documentary by Director Jason Wise about the Master Sommelier examination. Similar to the celebrity chef phenomenon and due in-part to the documentary film series SOMM (available on Netflix), wine professionals are seeing their own emergence and nod on the global stage. We’re proud to introduce our own resident Somm and Managing Partner, Jake Assaf. Jake’s been a humble servant of the grape for more than 14 years and eagerly boasts ‘someone has got to taste wine and cheese for the rest of us.’ Jake is excellent at just that and is also a jedi master at pairing wines to perfectly suit your tastes and preferences. He personally selects the wines on our tap system (8 wines available on draft) and reserve bottle list. Our wines rotate frequently and aim to introduce you to wines you’ve never tried from producers you’ve likely not heard of. Not sure what you like? You're in good hands and we can't wait to pour you a proper glass.
