Back Bay/Beacon Hill Wine Tour (now closed)
5pm: Wine Gallery (5-7pm)
516 Commonwealth Ave, across from Kenmore Station; 617.266.9300
Gallery's serving up two different Pinot Grigios, a varietal recently shown to share almost identical DNA to Pinot Noir, suggesting we're all descended from the same Grape Apes.
5:30pm: DeLuca's Market (5-7pm)
239 Newbury St, at Fairfield; 617.262.5990
Although DeLuca's hasn't settled on what they're pouring yet, they have narrowed it down to "yes".
6pm: Best Cellars (5-8pm)
745 Boylston St, btw Exeter and Fairfield; 617.266.2900
Four wines poured by a rep from Masciarelli, a Mass-based importer/producer specializing in Italian reds for Irish whites.
6:30pm: Charles St. Liquors (5-7pm)
143 Charles St, btw Cambridge and Revere; 617.523.5051

7pm: Beacon Hill Wine and Spirits (5-8pm)
63 Charles St, at Mt. Vernon; 617.742.8571
