The Scholium Project Winemaker Dinner

The Scholium Project Winemaker Dinner
July 29 at 6:30 pm ~ $50 per person, plus tax & gratuity.

Chef Chris Hall will prepare four, over-the-top courses to pair with the amazing wines and witty presence of winemaker/philosopher Abe Schoener (The Scholium Project) for a dinner at Local Three, in partnership with Tower Wine & Spirits.

In a 2008 New York Times article, Eric Asimov wrote: "...to call Scholium Project a winery and its proprietor, Abe Schoener, a winemaker is a little like calling Salvador Dalí a painter. It's true, but it does not begin to capture his visionary character. No winery in California is more unconventional, experimental or even radical than Scholium...."
