Tom Douglas Restaurants' 2nd Annual Croquet Tournament

We spent the afternoon enjoying some tunes, catching some rays, eating hot dogs, drinking scrumptious cocktails, raising money for Food Lifeline and gettin' our Croquet on at the Tom Douglas Restaurants' 2nd Annual Lawn Party and Croquet Tournament. It was a ball! The Fragrant Ducks, representing Wild Ginger in Bellevue, won first place in the tournament! Way to go, guys!

Summer of Riesling 2013

While Winter is for cuddling up on the couch - in a warm, cozy sweater - with a big glass of Cab Sauv, Summer is for relaxing on the deck with a refreshing glass of Riesling. Summer is here, and even though we say Riesling pairs well with anytime of the year, now is the time to celebrate it's bright flavors during Summer of Riesling 2013.

We opened the Summer of Riesling with our Masters of Riesling Dinner featuring: Cornelius Donnhoff - Donnhoff, Andreas Heutwohl - Doktor Deinhard, Johannes Leitz - Leitz, Georg Prieler - Prieler, Michi Moosbrugger - Schloss Goblesburg, for a night of 9 different wines paired with 5 courses designed by our Executive Chef, Jacky Lo. 

We have another Riesling winemaker dinner 'round the corner.... dates/time to be determined. To stay up to date on all wine-centric news, sign up to receive news from The Underground Cellar. 

Also, in the Summer of Riesling glass this year, Burlesco DiVino: Wine in Rome - Lily Verlaine & Jasper McCann, producers of the wildly successful burlesque extravaganzas "Land of the Sweets: The Burlesque Nutcracker" and "Through The Looking Glass: The Burlesque Alice in Wonderland" will intoxicate us in a celebration of wine, beauty, and frivolity across time in The Eternal City - this August 21-24 at The Triple Door. RSVP here>>

The sweetest thing! We've teamed up with Seattle's finest Gelati & Cafe, Procopio Gelateria, to make a Riesling flavored sorbet available all summer long! Yum.

Join us in celebrating Germany's Queen of all wine- Riesling- during Summer of Riesling 2013!
