Central Connecticut Wine-Grgich Hills Wine Tasting

On May 24, 1976, California winemaker Mike Grgich made wine history.  In a head to head blind tasting between the best of California versus the best of France, Mike Grgich took home the prize for best overall Chardonnay.  This single day put Napa Valley on the map as a world premier wine growing region.

Join Firebox Restaurant and Grgich Hills on Thursday, April 10, at 6:30 PM for an evening of exquisite wine and exceptional food.
