Boutinot Family Imports: From Brick Layer to Master of Wine

  • Stout's Growlers 188 North Street Canton, GA 30114 USA (map)

June 17th 6pm – 8pm

There’s a history of heavy lifting at Boutinot…

 

Our story starts in 1972 and Paul Boutinot, having had a brief flirtation with shifting half a ton of bricks up and down a ladder, decided the glamour of the building industry wasn’t for him.

Paul quickly got into something else: wine.

After five years learning his trade in London, he headed back up north to Greater Manchester to join his father’s successful restaurant business. Frustrated with the quality of wine that could be sourced in the UK, Paul took matters into his own hands. He hired a van, trundled over to France, picked up some wine (it was legal back then) and sold it back in his parents’ restaurant.

Mac from Savannah will be presenting the wines.

We will be tasting 6 wines and they will be served with a charcuterie board.

Tickets are $40.00 each and are non-refundable.
