These wines are all from importer Eric Solomon's European Cellars book, a book we've loved since the day we opened our doors (they are after all some of the most exciting wines Spain has to offer) and last week we got in over one hundred cases of some outstanding estate grown Spanish wines at all price points. |

WineSense is Cork & Bottle's series of informative wine tastings that started over 4 years ago. They keep each of their seated classes to under 30 people so you can enjoy your wine-tasting with some elbow room; stand-up tastings allow for a few more people to show up, but they never crowd the room. Unless otherwise noted, each tasting is held on Wednesdays at 7:00 and last for about an hour or so. Beginning in mid-February, seated tastings will be held in the store on Perkins Road, and stand-up reception-style tastings will continue be held at The Camelot Club. Cheese and crackers will be served at the tastings unless otherwise noted.
The following is C&B's BATON ROUGE calendar through the first week of March. Look for theSpring schedule to be announced mid-February that will feature in-store seated tastings each and every Wednesday! So get ready Baton Rouge...it's time for some WineSense in 2007! |

Review: Galatoire's Bistro, Baton Rouge

[Editorial]
[Baton Rouge] |
When the famous New Orleans restaurant, Galatoire's, announced shortly after Hurricane Katrina struck that it was opening a restaurant in Baton Rouge, much of New Orleans rose up in anguished protest. To be fair, several New Orleans-based businesses had just announced that they were moving to other, undamaged cities, abandoning the place that had allowed them to grow without a second glance. (Ruth's Chris Steak House, we're looking at you.) It was painful to think that a New Orleans icon like Galatoire's might be joining them.
Then the owners made it clear that they had been planning a Baton Rouge restaurant for some time, and that they were definitely going to re-open their French Quarter restaurant as soon as possible. (It's open now.) Tempers died down, and Baton Rouge inhabitants, both previous and post-Katrina, started simply looking forward to that highest form of ordinary entertainment for south Louisiana: a new restaurant to try. |
