Here’s the thing about wine dinners. They can be a little stuffy. You’re pretty much under the control of the restaurant. Arrive now! Eat this! Drink this! Don’t touch your neighbor’s husband! You know, stuff like that. But at the Grape, that’s all different. Chef Brian C. Luscher’s restaurant is already the definition of casual, romantic dining in this town, and his wine dinners are fun, too. He’s throwing one tonight, featuring the wines of Grgich Hills Estate in California. Instead of telling you what time to arrive, you can make your own reseravtion (any time between 5:30 and 9). The winemaker will be there, but he or she will stop by your table as your wines arrive, meaning you can work at your own pace (not the group’s). We’ve heard tonight’s guests will be tasting fume blanc, zinfandel, and something called Violetta Late Harvest, paired up with three courses of whatever Luscher fancies today. Cost is $55, which is a deal, considering how much you eat and drink. Kidding. Projecting. Anyway, if that doesn’t sound fun, you need to get your fun meter checked. And then, check out a few more ideas for tonight over here.
