A New York Magazine Critics' Pick

"...while the proprietors have given top billing to their supple, natural wine list—they own Thirst Wine Merchants in Fort Greene...—there is much to enjoy in the authentic, unpretentious French fare that supports it."

Pierre Breton Dinner at THIRSTBARAVIN this Monday

Although we're normally closed Mondays, this Monday, November 7 (which happens to be my birthday), we're hosting a special wine dinner with winemaker Pierre Breton (from Catherine & Pierre Breton). Icons in the natural wine movement for doing what they do in an area where the climate and soil can make organic viticulture difficult, Catherine &  Pierre Breton's wines have long been among our favorites to drink. They make a variety of wines -- all are delicious, well-balanced, terroir-driven -- and certified organic & biodynamic to boot. There'll be just one seating at 8pm. The cost: $75 with wine pairings. By reservation only and selling out fast. Call us at 718.857.9227 to make your reservation. We hope to see you there.
