Join us on Thursday, September 19th to taste 12 wines from the South of France. The South of France is an embarrassment of riches when it comes to wine, but it has still never blown up in popularity like other French regions. Of course, at Outer Space we love regions like this because it means […]
We love wines with some age on them. That doesn't mean old wines, necessarily. It just means that we appreciate a wine that has had the appropriate amount of time to come into its own. One of the things that drives us crazy about Napa is that so many wines are so age-worthy, but get […]

Well, this Saturday we're digging back into the cellar and pulling out more […]
