Rincon Market is hosting a free wine tasting event that’ll feature at least 40 wines from 4 – 7 p.m. on Saturday, December 15.
Earlier this year, owner of Time Market, Peter Wilke, purchased Rincon Market. Its wine department has since flourished with a larger variety of wines.
During the free tasting event, you’ll be introduced to unique wines from nine different countries — including varieties of sparkling, white, rosé, and red.
Aside from the tastes, you’ll expand your knowledge for holiday parties, gifts, or for the simple pleasure of impressing your friends in public.
Also, in attendance will be beverage manager for both markets, Cory Jochems, and Rincon Market’s new butcher, Danny Kretschmer. Both of them will be available to answer any questions about the wine that pop into your mind.
So, prepare your palette as light snacks will also be on hand.
Rincon Market is located at 2513 E. Sixth St. For more information, call (520) 327-6653 or visit Rincon Market’s Facebook event page.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
