Free Wine Tasting – Kermit Lynch

Swing by Galloway’s Wine & Beer Bar on the lower level of The Belted Goat between 1 pm – 3 pm to learn about different wines every week. Want to learn more about our weekly tastings? Check the Fearrington Village calendar for our wine events! This week: Kermit Lynch wines.

Kermit Lynch was raised in San Luis Obispo, but his name has become synonymous with French and Italian wines. In 1972, with a $5,000 loan and maybe a bit of gumption, this writer/musician opened Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant with thirty-five cases of wine stacked on the floor. Attracted by the Old World wine cultures of Europe, Kermit became a retailer, distributor, and national importer for authentic wines that express their terroir. Much like his close friends, the late food writer Richard Olney and Chez Panisse’s founder Alice Waters, Kermit’s influence has been enduring. He has had so much success shining the spotlight on small, artisan producers that he has won two James Beard awards and was knighted by the French government with their prestigious “Legion d’Honneur.”
