[wine] Restaurant Suggestion

by Alicia Anderson

Hi All- I can't make it this again the week, due to work scheduling conflicts, but has the group tried Blackbird on 50th and Bryant in SW Minneapolis? John and I went there the other night - albeit late - and we had a great time. The wine list is interesting and they have hearty, honest fare for fall. My vegetarian pot pie had to most fantastic crust!!! Blackbird has limited seating. It's a neighborhood joint with not much parking, either, so I would suggest car pooling, if possible. Any takers?

[wine] Movie???

by karin

Hi All: I'm organizing a combo Eat-and-Watch-a-Movie evening this coming Sunday, September 30th. [I'm aware that it's a 'school night,' but figure that persons needing additional sleep might sneak in a nap on Sunday in preparation. ;-) ] Food: between 7:30 and 8:30 at the Riverview Wine Bar: http://www.theriverview.net/ Menu options include antipasti, salad, pizza, cheese plates, desserts. Movie at 9:25: PARIS JE T'AIME (http://www.firstlookstudios.com/pjt/) Riverview Theater 3800 42nd Street, Mpls http://riverviewtheater.com The movie, directed by several luminaries, won rave reviews, and is 120 minutes long. Please let me know whether you're planning on attending (just want an idea of Size); either via email or phone: 612.825.8526. I'll ask the Wine bar about bringing in extras, but suspect that's not encouraged in such a small place. still, one might wear one's largest trench coat... hope folks are interested! -Karin

[wine] SEPT 27 superb Aussie winemaker and former stand up comic

by annette peters

Hello everyone, I have never taken advantage of this network to promote anything but I simply felt I had to tell you all about this event on September 27th. Jane Ferrari is one of Australia's top winemakers and recently through her efforts has made Yalumba one of a few to recieve the "green award". She is also a former stand-up comic, so you can imagine what this brings to a wine dinner! OK, now add the superb cooking of Scott Pampuch at Corner Table. This will be a great night! It takes place at 6:30 at Corner Table. The cost is $75 all inclusive. I hope you will try to be there. It is limited to 44 people. If you are interested you mat reserve with South Lyndale Liquoirs: Mitch(a)southlyndaleliquors.com. See you there! Annette Peters 651-208-0588

[wine] Black Diamond Wine Tasting

by Nicolai Donchenko

A friendly reminder to all who may be interested: Black Diamond Liquors will be holding a benefit, in-store wine tasting on Saturday, September 29th from 4pm until 7pm. This will be a benefit for the American Cancer Society. It will work as the last benefit we had: you may purchase a Riedel Magnum Overture stem for $10 with all profits going toward the charity (Strongly encouraged) or you may drink out of crummy little plastic medicine cups. There will also be a silent auction consisting of some large format bottles and what ever else we can scare up. This will also be the kick-off for our fall wine sale so shop early and shop often. Cheers, Nicolai Donchenko, Manager Black Diamond Liquors
