Thad and Emily Christmas at Outer Space Wines

Some wines are special, rare and different, and you hardly ever get to taste them. Some are acquired tastes, but how do you acquire the taste without putting out for an expensive bottle? This is the event to solve that.  The wines that they drink around the holidays are some of these acquired tastes, and Thad and Emily Duprey want to share their holiday traditions on Friday, Dec. 20.  They’ll be drinking aged Alsatian whites, Vin Jaune, Barolo Chinato and more, from 5 to 8 p.m. The cost is $50 per person.
