$10 for Wine Club Members /$20 General 

Informal, walk-up tasting

No RSVP required. Walk-ins welcome!

Our 'What's My Wine?' tastings are fun, informal, educational and interactive. They are done in a blind tasting format - we pick 5-6 wines for you to taste, give you some tasting notes and help guide you through the tasting process. The 'game' is to try to determine which wine is which. The REAL purpose is to learn a tasting technique and improve your wine vocabulary in order to enhance your overall enjoyment of wine.

Come mix, mingle - and learn with fellow wine enthusiasts.

Grippaldi Wines Tasting

Friday November 22nd

@ Ancora Vino LOS GATOS

Join us celebrating the artful winemaking of Nicolò Grippaldi

Nicolò is a biodynamic winemaker based in Enna, the heart of Sicily. His wines are nothing short of a soulful experience, with every bottle portraying elegance, art, and Nicolò's deep love of his trade. Come by this Friday to hear his story and partake in a celestially rooted winemaking journey.

"I produce all of my wine ONLY from my grapes. They are grown organically, biodynamically in the high hills of my town, followed by vinification in my humble cellar without influence of barrels, no added yeast, and no filtration. I produce everything on my land with my own hands. I have never bought any grapes in the past, nor will I ever in the future. I want to believe this is the right way to make the clean, sincere, and heartful wine that is good for the soul." -Nicolò Grippaldi
