“Around the World in 80 Sips” Without Leaving San Francisco — And A Deal For Food Gal Readers
Imagine sipping more than 80 different wines — from powerhouses France, Italy and Spain to lesser known viticulture areas like Thailand — all in one spot.
You can, 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Feb. 25, at Crushpad in San Francisco, 2573 — 3rd St.. The urban winery, a short drive from the W Hotel, is hosting the second annual “Around the World in 80 Sips” tasting event, which is being organized by Bottlenotes, a wine education platform geared to the — ahem– Millennial Generation (20- and 30-somethings). Those who are a little more mature in years are sure to be welcomed, too.
In case you get hungry while enjoying all that wine, a wide variety of artisan cheeses also will be available for nibbling.
Tickets are $60 in advance or $75 at the door. A limited number of VIP tickets also are available, which allow you access to the event an hour earlier. VIP tickets are $85 in advance or $105 at the door.
For an added bonus, get $10 off your ticket just by clicking here, and entering the code, FOODGAL, at checkout.

Sounds like a great event! Even though I’m a bit more mature…

Sounds great and good timing–I literally just read an article about Crushpad in the NY TImes this morning!

We would love to attend an event like this, wish we were in SF!

Wow, how have I managed to miss this place?! Looks like very cool event. Too bad it overlaps with the SF Symphony Symphonix Party at Postrio!

Whoa, that’s a lot of wine. I suppose you’re expected to spit?

If I did not already have an event to go to I know what I’d be doing – sounds lime an amazing time. I’ll just have to see what you say about it.

This looks like such a fun event! The commute from Boston is a little long though!
