A community-oriented evening enjoying 3 thoughtfully selected wines and a dozen oysters from Connecticut.

After over 6 years in highly-coveted winemaking roles at Napa Valley Estates including Heitz Cellar, Ink Grade, and Lorenza, Austin-native Aaron Huntsberger returned home to explore new opportunities. His winemaking career took him to South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Napa Valley, and Sonoma County. During that time he created over 15 new wines, established two nationally-distributed wine brands, and bottled Wine Spectator’s #3 wine of the year with the 2016 Heitz Martha’s Vineyard.

Now armed with a decade of experience in the industry, he’s built a partnership with Quality Seafood Market, one of Austin’s longest-standing establishments and the source of its finest seafood. Together, they’ve crafted a new hospitality experience driven by a longing for community and a desire to share deep knowledge around wines of the world and the foods that accompany them.

Join us on Thursday April 25, 2024 for Oysters & Wine: Connecticut. We'll indulge in a dozen oysters, drink a fun variety of three wines, and take a look at the oysters grown in Connecticut waters.

Class will run from 6-7:30PM and additional food, wines by the glass, and bottles to take home will be available for sale on site.

We look forward to seeing you at Aaron's at Quality Seafood Market, 5621 Airport Blvd!
