Alsatian Wine Dinner And 65th Anniversary Celebration With Peter Weygandt

Come enjoy a wine tasting and dinner featuring the wines of three excellent Alsatian producers, Domaines Albert Mann, Henry Fuchs, and Schoffit. This month also marks the 65th Anniversary of the founding of Chez François in Washington D.C, by Papa Haeringer, a proud Alsatian indeed. Chef Jacques welcomes Peter Weygandt of Weygant-Metzler Importing, who will be joining head sommelier, Alex Bardsley, to introduce these fine wines. The evening will begin with a brief reception and seasonal canapés, followed by a tasting in two flights before the dinner, the first consisting of three diverse expressions of Riesling and the second of two opulent Gewurztraminers.  Dinner will follow, accompanied by a Pinot Gris and a Pinot Noir. Chef Jacques has crafted a special menu to showcase their charms. Tickets are $172 (including tax and gratuity) and the event is from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. For menu items, tickets, and more information click here.
