Wine Spectator Wine Experience

The Wine Spectator Experience is returning to San Francisco this October. To celebrate this, combined with our recent recognition, in Wine Spectator Magazine as recipients of the "Best of Awards of Excellence" for our incredible, and well-priced wine program, PlumpJack has decided to create an unforgettable Wine Experience Dinner!

Join us from October 16th-21st for delectable 4-course menus, with wine pairings, at PlumpJack Cafe San Francisco and Jack Falstaff.

PlumpJack Cafe will be offering the chance of a lifetime to taste PlumpJack Wines by the glass. Their menu will feature seasonal ingredients paired with PlumpJack Sauvignon Blanc, PlumpJack Chardonnay and PlumpJack Merlot by the glass.

Jack Falstaff's 4-course menu of locally produced, organic fare will feature pairings of Wine Spectator Experience favorites Groth, Ramey, Neyers and Lagier-Meredith from our Wine Director and Wine Spectator Experience participant, Gillian Ballance.

Wine Experience Dinners are $50 for 4-courses, $75 with wine pairings.
