The Oyster Bliss Line-Up

Last night we had our staff pre-Oyster Bliss tasting. Each year we have to figure it all out again and see if 1) oysters are still the most delectable shellfish and 2) if crisp white wine pairs well with them. Believe it or not, we found out that the answer is “yes” on both accounts. We tasted through about fifteen wines last night to select what we’ll be pouring tomorrow. To whet your palates for tomorrow’s event we’ve included a few fun pictures from last night’s tasting.
