Delight in an immersive tasting event with six bold wines, six chef-curated stations and Banshee Winemaker Jake Lachowitzer, ready to share the stories (and secrets) behind the bottles. In true Banshee style we’ll be spinning vinyl all night long, so bring your favorite records and set the soundtrack for an evening to remember. Purchase tickets here.
