More than ever this week you're probably trying to save some dough, especially after being in tax preparation hell. These budget-conscious wine events should put you in good spirits:
Every Monday in April La Pomme Rouge (108 W. Kinzie St., 312-245-9555) dedicates its Dinner and a Movie! night to fun 1980s Brat Pack films. Get there at 7pm for one of my all-time favorites, "The Breakfast Club," starring Molly Ringwald, Emilio Estevez, Anthony Michael Hall, Judd Nelson and Ally Sheedy. You'll also get half-priced bottles of wine when you order dinner.
This week marks the fourth-year anniversary for Green Zebra (1460 W. Chicago Ave., 312-243-7100), the hip vegetarian-focused spot in West Town. They're doing it up big with a special four-course prix-fixe menu and wine pairings for $4 a glass.
Tonight's the second session in the six-part Global Grapes Series at Just Grapes (560 W. Washington Blvd., 312-627-9463). Guests will get the chance to learn about Cabernet and taste four to six different wines. 6-7pm. $35.
And as always, cool, Euro-style Taste Food & Wine (1506 W. Jarvis Ave., 773-761-3663) in Jarvis Square hosts its weekly Monday night tasting event where shoppers get the opportunity to sample specially selected vino and/or spirits. 6-7:30pm. Free.
