I just walked by California Wine Merchant on Chestnut Street in San Francisco. If you haven’t checked out their Monday Night Winery events, you should. For $20, you taste four wines and receive a discount for any take home purchases. Sometimes, you can even meet a star.

Last Monday, the wine bar showcased the newest wines from legendary winemaker Heidi Barrett, creator of four 100 point wines, including the iconic Screaming Eagle. In a rare appearance, Barrett was on site, signing bottles and chatting with customers. Can’t believe I missed it!

If you did too, you can still taste some of her wines for La Sirena, including a Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, at the bar. This coming Monday, July 21, the wine bar is featuring Ladera, producers of estate hillside Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. Another not to miss event. Check it out.
