"Wine Monday" evenings at L'Espalier in Boston's Back Bay

The AAA Five Diamond award-winning L'Espalier restaurant, on Boylston St. in Boston's Back Bay, serves sophisticated and modern New England-French cuisine, with an emphasis on artisanal and New England ingredients.

"Since its inception in 2002, Wine Monday evenings have consisted of a selection of wines, inspired by the changing seasons, wine regions or varietals, paired with a four-course tasting menu composed by Chef McClelland. With menus and pairings ranging from the classical to the adventurous, guests at Wine Mondays are often the first to taste a dish that ultimately shows up on L’Espalier’s Prix Fixe menu."-- L'Espalier
