Le Bec somm Philippe Sauriat premiering a tasting series on Thursday

POSTED: Wednesday, September 19, 2012, 10:46 AM

One of the highlights of Le Bec 2.0 (1523 Walnut St.) is certainly sommelier Philippe Sauriat's comprehensive list of French hits. The list includes all of the Bordeaux and Burgundies that you'd expect at a restaurant of this calibre but he's managed to keep the list remarkably affordable and diverse.

If you'd like to sample some of the Ducasse vet's pairing skills, he's going to be hosting a series of tastings at Chez Georges, the downstairs bar at Lec Bec beginning Thursday. For $40 guests will receive a flight of six Syrahs: 3 old world and 3 West Coast offerings to sniff and swirl. Chef Walter Abrams will be providing a selection of Syrah-friendly passed canapés. RSVP to this event by calling 215-567-1000.
