Mary Taylor

DINNER WITH MARY TAYLOR

Wednesday, July 15 2026
• At 7

Careful sourcing, support for small growers, and bottles that consistently provide great value for the price.

If you’ve been to wine-sense, you’ve probably seen Mary Taylor’s wines on the shelves. They’re all approachable, affordable, and true to their country of origin. A Massachusetts native, Mary has a background in the wine industry that most would envy but remains remarkably modest. When we first met, I was struck by the pride she takes in sourcing her wines from so many diverse regions. Her enthusiasm is infectious, especially when she talks about the dedicated growers she collaborates with, each contributing their own story and craftsmanship to the wine-making process. 

Having Mary join us for this dinner is a real treat, and supporting her wines in my shop feels like more than just a business decision. It’s an opportunity to celebrate her passion and commitment to quality.

Join us on July 15th at 7 at Bistro 5 in Medford for a four-course dinner with Mary and yours truly.

Our friend James Mucci will be at the tasting table. It’s always special to feature the Mucci selection at our shop. Every pour tells a story and every story has a passionate and sincere producer behind it. We usually see him at our grand tasting, but this time he’s flying solo and sharing with us some of his latest finds and new vintage releases.
