In 1996, El Gaucho opened with a vision of fine dining from a bygone era with old-school tableside service for people celebrating their lives. Twenty years later, the family-run company has grown to five restaurants throughout the Pacific Northwest and a boutique inn. To mark the occasion, a company-wide celebration with promotions and events will run through December 2016.
El Gaucho
Distilled from a blend of Washington Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc grapes, this local libation is crisp and clear.
Glass Distillery located in Seattle’s SODO district launched their flagship product, Glass Vodka, and their new state of the art tasting room and distillery. Lucky for Seattle, this crystal clear spirit is not just another Vodka.
Critically acclaimed wine is just a few bills away.
“They’re just grapes from a farm, that’s all it is,” said Kristen Young, former Wine Director at AQUA by El Gaucho (formerly Waterfront Seafood Grill). “People like to make such a fuss about wine.”
Ring in the summer with a gastronomical weekend getaway.

Time to get your wine on!
As far as I’m concerned, every month is Washington Wine Month. But since March is the official designation to celebrate the fine wines of our state, I can’t think of a better place to be on Tuesday, March 8th than Legendary Swirl 2011 at El Gaucho Seattle.
Testing, testing…
