The Barrel Room SF To Host Freemark Abbey Wine Tasting

The Barrel Room San Francisco will host a Friday, December 4 Freemark Abbey $75.00 vertical wine tasting from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. showcasing Cabernet Sauvignon from 1987, 1999, 2002, 2004 and 2005, plus a 2004 Bosche Cabernet Sauvignon. This special event is limited to 40 guests and reservations are required via [email protected].

Freemark Abbey was founded 1886, when Josephine Tychson established the original winery along Route 29 in St. Helena, California where Freemark Abbey still stands. She kicked off a history of innovation, becoming one of the first woman winegrowers on record. The current name of the winery was created in 1939, when the three owners – Charles Freeman, Markquand Foster and Abbey Ahern – combined their names to form the moniker “Freemark Abbey.” In 1967, seven partners purchased Freemark Abbey, setting the stage for a new era of creativity. The winery earned the nickname the “University of Freemark” due to the sheer number of innovations and significant winemakers that have emerged.

Sommelier/proprietor Sarah Trubnick, Executive Chef Manuel Hewitt, and partners Carolyn Johnson and Stephen Deyton opened The Barrel Room San Francisco on Sansome Street in May of 2015. At The Barrel Room, there is an emphasis on educational tasting flights and a wine-friendly food menus by Chef Hewitt that vary on a quarterly basis with regional focuses that will include, but not be limited to, Latin America, France, Germany, Austria, Italy and the United States.

A hallmark of The Barrel Room is their commitment to seeking out hard-to-find wines from around the world. The wine list features an extensive selection of educational flights arranged by region, varietal or flavor profile, all appropriate for pairing with the current regional food focus. The wines from these flights are available by the glass (more than 50) and the extensive bottle list affords guests a choice of more thisthan 200 international wines organized by characteristics such as light and crisp, aromatic, bold, plush, spicy or earthy. The cocktail menu, crafted by Bar Manager Nick Palm (previously of Georges), features 10 to 12 libations linked to the current regional food focus.

Highlights of the engaging 60-seat Barrel Room dining room's "rustic modern" décor include a large skylight; a redwood-topped bar; old growth redwood accents, panels and facings; a rich gray color scheme; bench seating; handmade glass globe pendant lights; and a handmade glass globe chandelier mounted in an atrium over the main dining area.
