5-9pm tomorrow: An Ode to Taras Ochota @ Atlas Vinifera

Last year legendary winemaker Taras Ochota passed away suddenly, leaving the wine community in shock and sadness. Near the end of last year, we managed to secure a tiny allocation of Taras' final releases. As we didn't want to have to pick and choose who could purchase these last bottles, we have decided instead that we will be pouring them, for one night only, to toast this exceptional human and the impact he had on our community. By the glass until they're gone.
This is a free event, however bookings are ESSENTIAL. We are now taking bookings via email, please contact us at [email protected] to reserve your spot.
