If the lingering winter weather is making you wish for a weekend of wine tasting in Napa, head to Alba in Quincy on Tuesday, March 28th for a four-course wine dinner with Elton Slone of Robert Craig Winery. The president of the Napa, California winery will walk you through each wine pairing and share his passion for old world-style winemaking in the new world.

Give the restaurant a call at 617.376.2522 to save a spot (they do it old school), and head to the South Shore steakhouse for a 6:00pm Champagne reception, followed by seated courses paired with 2021 Gap’s Crown Vineyard Chardonnay, 2018 Affinity Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, 2019 Howell Mountain Cuvée Red Wine, and 2018 Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon. Keep an eye on Alba’s Instagram and Facebook for any changes, and for upcoming 2023 winery visits.
