Meryl Mathews, Producer at Tonia's Kitchen, recently visited Wine Enthusiast's first brick & mortar store, located in Soho, NYC - where a Benziger Wine Event called 'Running Wild Chardonnay' was featured. 2nd Generation Vintner, Chris Benziger, was on hand to share interesting anecdotes of his family's foray into the wine business, while 3 delicious wines from the Benziger portfolio, including Running Wild Chardonnay, a Pinot Noir and a Cabernet Sauvignon were served to guests. Wonderfully curated bites were in perfect harmony, complementing a luscious experience for each attendee. The store stocks beautiful accoutrements that wine aficianados could enjoy - and we highly suggest visiting when in NYC, at 27 Greene Street.
