Despite the silly and blatant overuse of prison references describing these wines, Big House winery offers a series of great tasting reds, whites, and even a pink (or rose, if you prefer). Located a stones-throw (or prison-break if you want to be corny) from the Soledad State Correctional Facility in Soledad, CA, the folks at The Big House love blending varietals to create one-of-a-kind tastes. According to The Warden Georgette Dane, "I look at making a wine as if I am putting together a perfume: base notes, middle notes, top notes, and essential oils." A mighty feminine approach, if you ask me, for a warden. Join us for our monthly wine tasting this Wednesday, March 3, from 6-7:30 pm. $15 per person, includes the tasting of 6 wines, appetizers, printed tasting notes, and lots of fun. RSVP requested 252-335-1163
