The new LXV Wine Lounge (Tasting Room) is a sensory experience, with deep blue walls, day beds full of vibrant colors and plush pillows, wines paired with spices, and labels inspired by the 64 arts of KamaSutra.

LXV Wine is an artisanal hand-crafted California Wine from Paso Robles, the premium appellation on the California Central Coast. The style of the wine is in keeping with the old world, minimalist and authentic, expressed through contemporary blends. Some of their distinct honors include Best of Class at SF Chronicle and Gold at San Diego International Competition, 90+ points by Wine Enthusiast and great reviews by several Sommeliers.

During your sixty-minute Wine and Spice Pairing workshop, they will pair six wines including Champagne, a Bordeaux, a Burgundy, Dessert Wine and two LXV Wines with spices, seasonings, herbs and salts. Wines are paired with sheep's milk cheese (for low-acidity), dusted with spice blends. And the spices heighten the underlying flavor profiles of the wines (as they do in food).

When paired with the right bite, that mirrors, complements, or, sometime, contrasts the flavors, the experience of the tasting heightens as the wine unravels the deeper, softer layers.

Workshop will be hosted by Neeta Mittal. Valid until July 31, 2017.
