Winemaker Tasting with Kristie Tacey of Tessier Winery

  • minimo 420 3rd St Oakland, CA, 94607 (map)

East Bay winemaker Kristie Tacey has a background in microbiology–she even worked on the Human Genome Project. Yet she discovered winemaking was her true calling, and in 2009 she launched Tessier, which reflects her passion for the art and science of winemaking. Influenced by the Loire Valley and Burgundy, her minimal intervention wines express a purity of fruit balanced with fresh acidity. She’s also a music lover, so each of her wines is paired with a song to convey its personality and create an experience. (You can hear her on KXSF community radio, where she’s a part of the Supper Sessions collective.) Join us for a winemaker tasting with Kristie on Thursday, June 8th, from 5-7pm. She’ll pour a flight of new releases, which will also be available by the glass. And of course, she’s put together a playlist of tunes for the occasion!

Electric Ladyland 2022
Femme Fatale Rosé 2022
Soul Love 2022
