Calissa in Watermill was recently awarded the Wine Spectator's Award of Excellence, as their approach to wine has been described as "daring... [one that] Dionysis would approve of" (New York Times) and "bold...the equivalent of freaking to Burt Bacharach" (Eater).

Calissa sommeliers will lead a 20 minute tasting and discussion of different types of rose from around the Mediterranean and share insider knowledge on how to pick a great rose for your next dinner party or night out.

The talk will take place in one of Calissa's private rooms and include a a selection of mediterranean dips and charcuterie. Please
note this certificate is not transferable to another location.

The talk is lead by managing partner James Mallios (a former stand up comedian) who was described by Decanted as "about a hundred miles from the stereotypical sommelier - a sort of Greek version of Tony Soprano who looks more likely to kneecap you than pour you a glass of natural wine".

Package includes:

• Rose pouring freely for 2 hours.
• Ideal for parties of 8-10 people.

*Blackout Dates: All weekends Memorial Day- Labor Day, scheduling at Calissa's convenience.
*Preferred Dates: In-season; Mon-Thurs
Off-season: Weekends with advanced booking

*Timing and reservations subject to a la carte and private dining reservations. Gift certificate is not transferable to dining
credit and is exclusive of gratuity, which is suggested.

*Calissa reserves the right to reschedule the event up to 24 hours before the event. We endeavor to schedule wine tasting gift certificates on days when this is least likely to occur to avoid this possible situation from the outset of scheduling.

*If you decide to stay for dinner, we request that the party orders additional appetizers/entrees "for the table" and whatever wine is open at the time the tasting is completed will be "carried over" to your dinner and additional beverages, food, etc. will be charged at normal a la carte prices. We do ask to start the tasting within approximately 15 minutes of the scheduled start time.

*The gift certificate is valid until 1.31.23.
