It's our great pleasure to announce our fourth annual Skurnik Champagne Tasting. With forty incredible Champagnes from a portfolio full of stars, this is an unmissable night for Champagne fanatics.
Featured producers will include Vilmart & Fils, Pierre Paillard, A. Margaine, Marc Hebrart, Famille Moussé, Pehu-Simonet and many more.
We'll open 40 different bottles in an intimate setting, limiting attendance this year to give you more time and space to taste, learn and savor. This event will sell out fast, so don't wait! Tickets are $80 and include a $20 store credit that you will receive the night of the event.
Please join us for a very special walk-around tasting on our mezzanine on Thursday, September 25 from 5:30-7:30pm as we open more than 40 stunners from the 2025 Skurnik Champagne portfolio. You'll also get an early chance to place orders from our annual sale the following day.
Please note: This event extremely limited. No one will be admitted without a ticket.
Artemis Karamolegos, born and raised on the island, is carrying on his family’s legacy at his eponymous winery. The focus is, without a doubt, Assyrtiko in all its glory and potential. Artemis owns some vineyards — most of which are over a hundred years old — and maintains good relationships with smaller growers.

Anthony Lynch (son of legendary importer Kermit Lynch) came to New York last week and brought a few special bottles from their Berkeley cellar to lunch, including 2007 Vacqueyras Le Sang des Cailloux and Thierry Allemand’s 2005 Cornas Reynard. But the surprise winner with the food was a Corsican red, the 2020 Antoine Arena Patrimonio Rouge, "Morta Maio.”
