Our fifth #drinklikeascythianevent, focused on the wines of a Scythian winter.

Raj and I thought of this series late one night at The Ten Bells in New York City. We inaugurated it together in London, with the help of our dear friend Christina. Now we bring it  home.

We will explore the notion not of terroir, but territory-- nomadism versus the settled life of the city dweller, the Clos versus the field, the metaphysics of wandering.

We will drink 12 wines together; an amazing selection, appropriate for this gala event. Raj and I are still working on the selection, but this will give you an idea from what we served on the last occasion:
