An Evening with Fritz Becker

An Evening with Fritz Becker

February 27, 2026 A trailblazer for German Pinot Noir, Weingut Friedrich Becker helped redefine what Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir) could achieve in the Pfalz region. Founded by Friedrich “Fritz” Becker Sr. and now led by Fritz Becker Jr., this family estate works limestone-rich vineyards on both sides of the German–French border, farmed organically with a deep respect for terroir.

Their wines are celebrated for purity, structure, and aging potential—combining Burgundian finesse with a distinctly Pfalz sense of place—and are consistently counted among Germany’s top Pinot Noirs.

Five-course, prix fixe menu with wine pairing ($225 per person), with an optional cheese supplement. Please call 410.822.1637 to reserve or visit OpenTable.com. Full menu available under Food & Drink tab above.
An Evening with Pierre Meurgey

An Evening with Pierre Meurgey

March 06, 2026 Pierre Meurgey is a fourth-generation Burgundian négociant and winemaker from Beaune. His work centers on small-scale, human-sized Burgundy wines rooted in sustainability, craftsmanship, and respect for growers and land.

Farming his own parcels and partnering with like-minded organic and biodynamic growers, Pierre emphasizes trust, fairness, and healthy vineyards. He also played a key role in reviving the historic Volnay 1er Cru Clos de la Chapelle. Through sustainable viticulture and precise winemaking, he helped shape its modern identity alongside owner and winemaker Mark O’Connell.

Hands-on from vineyard to cellar, Pierre works with native yeasts, minimal intervention, and careful oak, vinifying parcel by parcel. His limited-production wines express Burgundy’s terroirs while supporting family growers and resisting the scale and uniformity increasingly facing the region.
