TUESDAY, JANUARY 24, 2011
6:30 PM Reception / 7 PM Dinner
Reservations: (212) 941-3900

Join Tribeca Grill's Wine Director David Gordon for a rare opportunity to try world-class wines and meet the people behind them. Owner & Winemaker Chris Figgins (Leonetti, Figgins, Doubleback) and Doubleback Proprietor & former star quarterback Drew Bledsoe are featuring some of their very best selections on Tuesday, January 24th.

Childhood friends Chris Figgins and Drew Bledsoe, both of Walla Walla, Washington, collaborate "from dirt to bottle" at Doubleback. After retiring from the NFL, Drew literally returned to his roots to found Doubleback and Chris became the consulting winemaker. Drew will be joining Chris at Tribeca Grill to present two vintages of Doubleback, as well as the rare Stolen Horse Syrah (only 100 cases produced). Doubleback has already garnered some serious praise with the first two vintages scoring 95 and 94 points in Wine Spectator. Be the first to taste the 2009 Doubleback Cabernet Sauvignon before its official release in February 2012.
