Nirvino Monthly goes live at Local
April 4th, 2008 by phil
Wednesday evening, Nirvino kicked off it’s first monthly wine event at Local Kitchen and Wine Merchant. Manolo Frias shared five of his Napa Valley wines from Frias Family Vineyards, the ‘06 Sauvignon Blanc, ‘06 Rose, ‘05 Syrah, ‘05 Cab Blend and the ‘05 Spring Mountain Cab. As people drank the good juice, Local chef Ola Fendert sent out thin crust pizzas, charcuterie plates, and glasses filled with sumptuous white truffle fries for everyone to nosh on. Not a bad way to start a Wednesday night in San Francisco!
Nirvino would like to thank everyone for coming out and adding their charm and beauty to the evening. Also, a big thank you to Mark, Maria, Ola, Carl, Gabrieli and the rest of the staff for making Local feel like a much cooler version of home for an evening. And a special thanks to Manolo for pouring with a heavy hand, staying late, and entertaining everyone who came within arms-length with glass in hand.
Here are some photos from the event:
Your friends from Nirvino,
Christian, Meli and Phil

Local venue hit the spot! The people were nice and Frias was quite nice. Manolo (Frias winemaker) was super cool to boot. Thanks again Nirvino for being generous and I look forward to more fun times!
