The Breakfast Club...of Wine
April 26 2022 | 8:00 PM - 10:30 PM24 Harrison Street, New York, NY 10013
Well, damn, this has the potential to be awesome or *#@^%!~&
And yes, we are truly focusing on the 1980s uber classic cinema masterpiece,
The Breakfast Club.
How you might ask? (and believe me, I did ask my mom for answers here)
Simply put, we are going to deep dive into each of the 5 iconic characters
and imagine which wines are best typified by that archetype.
Brian Johnson = the Brain = Bordeaux / Barolo / Rioja / ????
Allison Reynolds = the Basket Case = Chenin Blanc / Aussie Grenache / ????
John Bender = the Criminal = Riesling / Mount Etna / Pais / ????
Claire Standish = the Princess = Champagne / Bourgogne Blanc / ????
Andrew Clark = the Jock = Zinfandel / Cali Chardonnay / ????
Truly, the avenues for wine exploration are myriad. And challenging. And illuminating.
The soundtrack for the night will be all 80s, all the time.
And is there a dress code...uhmmmm, I have my Madonna bangles ready to go.
The specifics:
-it will be a walk-around tasting, with at least 25 different wines
-there will be foodstuffs, potentially influenced by mom's cooking from the 80s
-we will hopefully have a guest speaker...to discuss why the 80s are the greatest decade ever
We very much look forward to celebrating this iconic movie
and its related wines with you.
