Here's a thought experiment: what happens when a legendary Napa Valley and Sonoma County winemaker walks into your favorite Southern Pines wine bar with seven bottles and a story behind every single one?
You show up. That's what happens.
Wine Tasting Event: Thursday, April 23rd at 6 PM
We're thrilled to welcome August Briggs Winery to The Wine Cellar and Tasting Room in Southern Pines for a guided wine tasting that's going to take your taste buds on a full California road trip—no boarding pass required. We're talking world-class wines from two of the most iconic wine regions on the planet: Napa Valley and Sonoma County.
And yes, there will be charcuterie. Because we're civilized like that.
The Lineup (Prepare to Be Impressed)
This isn't your average "pour and hope for the best" kind of evening. We've got a carefully curated selection of seven wines that tells the whole story—from bright, crisp whites to bold, velvety reds:
Pinot Blanc — Fresh, floral, and the perfect way to kick things off
Chardonnay — California sunshine in a glass
Pinot Noir — Silky, elegant, and dangerously easy to love
Malbec — Rich and juicy with just the right amount of swagger
Cabernet Sauvignon — The bold one. You know the type.
Meritage Red Blend — A Bordeaux-style stunner that plays well with others
Old Vine Zinfandel — Big, spicy, and absolutely unapologetic
Paired with a gorgeous charcuterie spread, each sip and bite has been thought out so you can sit back, relax, and let us do the heavy lifting.
Why This Southern Pines Wine Event Is a Must
August Briggs has been crafting exceptional wines in California for decades, drawing on the elegance of Sonoma and the power of Napa to create bottles that are as interesting to talk about as they are to drink. Whether you're the person who reads the back of every wine label or the one who just knows what you like when you taste it—this wine tasting event is for you.
Plus, let's be honest: it's a Thursday. You deserve something better than reheated leftovers and scrolling your phone. Treat yourself.
