Samples & Samples: A Music & Wine Pairing Experience (Lounge)
City Winery Nashville Presents Samples & Samples: A Music & Wine Pairing Experience live in concert on October 7th at 7:00pm
Most of us don’t realize the strong relationship between music and wine! Genres like hip-hop, pop, jazz, folk and soul music often combine new and old music samples to create a fresh and engaging product. Wine draws on the same ideology, as it uses age-old techniques fused with new ideas and approaches to create something delicious in its youth and as it ages.Certified Sommelier and a former Michelin Starred Beverage Director, Derrick C. Westbrook, will take you on a journey pairing unique wines with music reaching across genre & style. We created an event that brings the wine and music lovers together. This event is like your favorite blend, 33% Tasting, 33% Concert, 33% Wine Education, 1% Magic.
Hosted in City Winery’s intimate music venue, and alongside a live DJ, join us for a night of socializing and an exploration of various wines from Sommelier Derrick C. Westbrook. An evening paired with a great musical journey!The ticket includes access to the event and a flight of wines. City Winery's full food menu will be available for purchase.Before turning 30, Westbrook became the Cellar Manager of Alinea Group’s NEXT restaurant, and the Beverage Director of the Michelin-starred, Elizabeth restaurant in Chicago. The sommelier was later recognized for his professional contributions by Wine Enthusiast magazine as a 40 Under 40 Tastemaker, becoming the first African-American in the wine industry to grace the publication’s cover.
