Free Wine Tasting – Oregon All The Way
Mar 9 @ 2:00 pm – 5:00 pm
Table Wine

Oregon Wine Lovers Unite for the best free wine tasting in Asheville! Join us Saturday to try 5 delicious wines from Oregon’s Willamette Valley and beyond for free.

If you think all that Oregon does well is Pinot Noir, think again! The state is abundant with new producers “playing with” new grapes and new styles of wines, and we’re big fans. Don’t worry, we’ll certainly pour some Pinot Noirs, but we’ll also set our sights on some of Oregon’s newer wines and wineries. Check out the lineup below, spread the word, and plan to stop by. Taste, learn, save every Saturday at Table Wine!

Asheville’s Best Free Wine Tasting – Just stop by – we’ve got plenty of free parking!

Don’t forget, all the featured tasting wines are 20% off by the bottle on tasting day.

1. 2017 Elk Cove Pinot Gris (Willamette Valley, Oregon) – Elk Cove makes one of Oregon’s top Pinot Gris’, and the 2017 is in top form. Fermented in stainless steel, it is medium-bodied with good concentration to the pear, nectarine, apple and spice.
90 points Wine Advocate, 90 points Wine Enthusiast

2. 2018 Division-Villages Rosé of Gamay “L’Avoiron” (Yakima Valley, Washington) – Gamay, the same grape that makes the joyful wines of Beaujolais, has a found a new home in the Pacific Northwest, and one of my favorite new producers is Division Winemaking Company. They are fully dedicated to the Gamay grape (see wine #3), and their tiny production dry rosé is thrilling. Bright, crisp, fresh and brimming with tart red fruit, herbs and mineral, you’re gonna’ like it.

3. 2017 Division Winemaking Company Gamay “Lutte” (Willamette Valley, Oregon) – When I tasted this for the first time, I was immediately transported to Fleurie, the famed Cru Villages in Beaujolais. And it totally makes sense as winery founders Kate Norris and Thomas Monroe trained there! Lithe, fresh and packed with peppery, red fruit aromas and flavors, it is a hard one to put down.

4. 2015 Raptor Ridge Pinot Noir “Barrel Reserve” (Willamette Valley, Oregon) – I love the more modern-styled, richer, fuller-bodied style of Raptor Ridge’s Pinot Noirs, and they knocked it outta’ the park with this one. From the warm, dry and sunny 2015 vintage, this is a gorgeous, opulent red wine with soaring notes of ripe plum, cherry preserves, baking spices, and herb.
93 points James Suckling, 92 points Wine Enthusiast

5. Surprise Wine – Get ready for Oregon Pinot Noir greatness! This one was one of Wine Spectator’s top-rated wines of the legendary 2014 vintage. Yep, we’ve still got some!

The Book of Mormon
Mar 9 @ 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm
Peace Center

The New York Times calls it “the best musical of this century.” The Washington Post says, “It is the kind of evening that restores your faith in musicals.” And Entertainment Weekly says, “Grade A: the funniest musical of all time.” Jimmy Fallon of The Tonight Show calls it “Genius. Brilliant. Phenomenal.” It’s The Book of Mormon, the nine-time Tony Award®-winning Best Musical.

This outrageous musical comedy follows the misadventures of a mismatched pair of missionaries, sent halfway across the world to spread the Good Word. Now with standing room only productions in London, on Broadway, and across North America, The Book of Mormon has truly become an international sensation. Contains explicit language.

March Youth & Family Meetup
Mar 9 @ 4:00 pm – 6:00 pm
email [email protected] for location

**Our meetings are being held in a NEW LOCATION as of February. Please email [email protected] for location information!**

Support and community for trans, nonbinary, and gender non-conforming youth is essential to their well being, and their parents, family, and caregivers need support and community, too! Each month we have a meetup to make connections, share information and ideas, ask for advice, and be able to offer each other understanding and support. Snacks will be provided, but you are welcome to bring things to share if you’d like!

There will be no gatekeeping or demands/expectations about how you and your family navigate transition, just support and a listening ear. We are here to answer questions, offer information and support, and help you connect with other parents who are navigating similar situations, not push any agenda or expectations about what is right for your family. Bring your youth and let them enjoy the ease of socializing with other trans, nonbinary, and gender non-conforming youth while making something fun and creative that they can bring home with them while you get a chance to connect with other parents and caregivers and talk with our Support Programs Director, Mx. Tuesday Feral, LPCA.

Trained facilitators who are experienced with gender non-conforming youth will offer fun activities for the youth to participate in while the parents and caregivers network and support each other around the joys and trials of helping their children navigate the world and their gender in a separate, facilitated group.
