Some of you may already know, I have a night job as a bartender at 20 Brix. I get to work with my sister-in-law Cambrey Hastings and Tuesday we worked a great wine tasting.
This time I had the pleasure of meeting Hunter Vogel, the label owner of Treasure Hunter wines at the 20 Brix wine tasting brought in by Purple Feet Distributors. They featured 5 red wines. My favorite right now is the Man O' War Cabernet.
Chef Paul Borraco paired a 5 course meal to pair with each wine. Grahm, Dylan, and Josh assisted Paul in the kitchen to prepare and plate this for 25 people while still taking care of all the normal restaurant business as well. Between each course, Chef likes to come out and talk to our people at the tasting. I think my favorite quote of the night was after one guest told him how great the food was he says, "I enjoy creating mouth adventures."
Hunter Vogel was one of the funnest people to listen to of all the wine tastings I've worked there. After the tasting and bottle signing ("Thanks for letting me put my Pinot in you."-hahaha!!) I was able to get some pictures of him with our General Manager Clay Mitchel, Cynthia, and Chef Paul.
Yup, I also get paid to work there.
