PALS.
One last (probably) note from me this year to send you an invitation to what I hope will be the Dear Annie supper club to end all supper clubs.
Those of you who are new here because you saw our Instagram post alerting you to this secret soirée already know that we’re kicking 2024 to the curb with an extravaganza devoted to good food, secret surprises, and the kinds of wines you’ll remember for the rest of your life. Those of you who are OGs will know that our supper clubs and dinner parties are where we throw down—and this party has even more hot shit energy behind it than any party we’ve ever thrown.
Why?
Why the fuck not.
This year was ICK, we have a lot of good wine we’ve been hoarding, and we need a little bump of good vibes to get us through the end of the year. That’s literally it.
And you’re invited.
There’s plenty of info up on the super secret Resy page devoted to this event (it’s only accessible via the link here, in true super secret fashion), but here are some elaborations:
We’ll eat oysters, caviar, cheese, and lots of mushrooms. There will be scallops on the half shell and pears flambée. There will be many secret sweets. There will be things from our friends that we can’t reveal just yet. There will be many cute bites, and it will all be communal and cocktail-style. This is the house party of your dreams. Bring your friends, bring your lovers, bring your friends you wish were lovers.
And the wine? We don’t want to give *too much* away, but here’s a little peek:
2017 Coessens ‘Largillier’ Champagne! 2005 Valette Mâcon-Villages! 2021 Marthe Henry Saint-Romain ‘Perrière,’ 2018 Sarnin-Berrux ‘le Petit Têtu’! 2014 Sylvain Pataille ‘Clos du Roy’! Plus some Very Old Vin Jaune, probably some very old Clos Saron, also some very old Canonica, maybe some Gea, maybe some Clos Rougeard or even some Keller honestly it depends on my mood. We have a 1954 Archiviste Rivesaltes I’d like to crack. We’ve also had a few bottles of Tarlant Amphorae kicking around that would be fun to open. That’s to say nothing of the Courtois or even the Radikon… All by the glass and half glass, all for you.
Re: Dress code, I’m afraid I must insist on velvet, sequins, gold lamé, or whatever version of workwear feels most luxe to you, if you are in fact allergic to the standard holiday vestments. It would be really fun for all of us to decide to embrace the spirit of the energetic cycle, at least, in whatever way feels right. Go goth if it moves you (plus glitter, maybe).
I’m going to end it here! If you entered for a chance to win 50% off via our Instagram post, we’ve already selected a winner! But this event an epic steal either way, so kindly get your tickets below.
Any questions, let me know.
I fucking love you. Let’s get after it.
XOXO,
Lauren
P.S. I can’t wait until January when I can start writing real shit again and stop just telling you about things you can do with us, but ‘tis the season etc etc.
