12th & Olive Wine Tasting

I had a chance to stop by the wine tasting at 12th & Olive Wine Company (formerly Tarragona) yesterday evening. I highly recommend checking out these wine tastings (every Friday from 5 to 8 pm), if you are in the neighborhood. Steven is an able host - chatting with oenophiles as well as the rest of us. I picked up a bottle of Cigliuti Barbaresco Serraboella 2001, as Eric was making dinner and wandered home.

Is it the same owners? I think I like the old name better.

Same owner - I agree I like the previous name better

Different owners, very different selection and atmosphere!
I like the new name is says where it is and what they sell. What did Taragona mean?

According to Wikiipedia, Tarragona is the first large seaside town south of Barcelona.
