Galante Wine Dinner at Joe’s Galante Wine Dinner Sept 26th There’s nothing like a great party!  And by all reports, a great party was had at our annual wine dinner.  Of course it helped that Jack Galante (owner of Galante Wines and our co-host) is a consummate party guy!  The wine flowed, the jokes and laughter spilled over.  Several Santa Fe restaurant industry heavyweights were there (no siree I’m not mentioning names!) and our waiters did a bang-up job keeping the guests fed and happy.  The kitchen staff worked miracles and there was...
