It’s been a least a couple of years now since Pearly Baker Fermentables opened its doors on the southwest corner of Scott Avenue and Broadway Boulevard. In that short amount of time, it’s become a prime downtown destination for natural, classic, and honest wines from around the world.
Fun fact: The store takes its name from notable prohibitionist Pearly Baker who was the head of the Anti-Saloon League in the late 1800s.
In April, Pearly Baker presented its first set of collaborative dinners with local restaurants and distributors. The crew is now pleased to keep the wine train rollin’ by teaming up with Penca Restaurante and Forbes Meat Co. this month.
First up, they’re hosting the Penca wine dinner with L.A. Cetto on Sunday, May 21 at 5:30 p.m. Tickets are $130 per person and include a multi-course wine pairing dinner featuring Chile Relleno, empanadas, and more.
About the winery: “For seven generations, our family has been devoted to the art of producing wine. Since 1928, located within Valle de Guadalupe, we express care and respect for nature through components such as the climate, the ground, and our quality standards to produce vines in our fields.”

Then, a little later in May — the last day of the month, as a matter of fact — is another incredible dream team of local food fantasies. This dinner is really happening, though. On Wednesday, May 31 at 6 p.m., Pearly Baker is hosting Wagyu Whiskey Wednesday with Forbes Meat Co. at Owls Club.
Tickets are $165 per person and include multiple courses of whiskey, food, and great times.
