2) Ball Square Fine Wines is hosting Greek-themed wine dinner next Tuesday, November 9 at Bistro 5 in West Medford. The event starts at 7pm and tickets are available only on-line here. The cost is $75 per person, all inclusive. Bistro 5 is certainly one of my favorite restaurants so I am sure the food will be delicious. Plus, I am a fan of Greek wines so this should be an excellent event.
