French Gourmet to Host Wine School Event

For those of you who don’t know, The French Gourmet in Pacific Beach is one of the top French restaurants in all of San Diego. If you’ve never checked it out, we highly recommend you do so.

One of their real ‘claims-to-fame’ is a profound and very reasonably priced wine selection. Earlier this year they added a very cool set of special events called The French Gourmet Wine School. This was made possible because several months ago they brought sommelier Gino Campbell on board. We’ll be featuring Gino in an upcoming segment in the Entertainer, in addition to a provocative series on wine, but needless to say, he is one of the more accomplished experts on wine in San Diego.

You can join Gino on Sunday, November 22nd for the next installment of the ‘wine school.’ This event will feature the wines of Italy, specifically the Piemonte region. This is a great opportunity to learn about the history of the region, its climate and geography, plus of course enjoy tasting wines from Barolo, Barbaresco, Gavi, Gattinara, Acqui & Roero.

Our sources tell me there are only a few seats left; so for more information or to RSVP for the Wine School, please contact Gino Campbell at (858) 488-1725 x326
