bottle study: Icons of Argentina with Zuccardi
October 14th, 2026, 7 pm
hosted by Crunchy Red Fruit at Harry’s Fine Foods
Bottle Study is a tasting series designed to *get that special bottle open* rather than let it sit. This is an informal and relaxed tasting that is done in a conversational enviroment. The goal is to learn, have questions answered, and taste some world-class w**e with a Master Sommelier on hand to guide the conversation and learning!
On Wednesday, we’re doing a deep dive on the greatest w**es of Argentina. We’ll be joined by sommelier Wendy Shoemaker from Zuccardi Valle de Uco, who will be bringing some of their special bottlings and illuminating some of the incredible work being done there.
This will go beyond just a Malbec tasting, or even just Zuccardi! but we will be highlighting some other really interesting grapes and producers that demonstrate Argentina’s diversity and expression. There will be whites, lighter reds, and other things, but yes some great Malbec with age will also be poured!
At this tasting, exploration, learning and questions are encouraged. Tickets are limited, as we intend it to keep this a relatively intimate and relaxing atmosphere. This price includes a full dinner at Harry’s...the food is awesome btw. We’ll be doing more events there going forward.
Bringing a fun bottle of something on-theme to share is of course welcome, but never expected. I have been known to pop random fun things out of my own cellar for tastings like this, especially if the vibe is right!
Harry’s Fine Foods is located at 601 Bellevue Ave E, Seattle, WA 98102 - carpool or rideshare is recommended. It’s some of the toughest street parking in Seattle, so I am just warning you in advance that it’s worth the money spent on an Uber or Lyft.
