Blood into Wine - General Admission Screenings
Saturday February 20th
7:30pm (SOLD OUT); 10:30pm
$9

Blood into Wine is the widely anticipated documentary that shares the story of TOOL/A Perfect Circle/Puscifer front man Maynard James Keenan and his mentor Eric Glomski as they pioneer winemaking in the hostile deserts of Arizona.

Keenan’s various musical entities have sold over 10 million records in the US alone while the man himself has revealed little of his personal life. “Blood Into Wine” gives unprecedented insight into Keenan’s world and his motivations for taking on the arduous task of bringing winemaking to the region’s unforgiving landscape and how winemaking fits into Keenan’s creative trajectory.

Because we are such fans of music, movies, and well crafted beverages at the Drafthouse, we have decided to take the opening of this film to the next level. We are working with the good folks at Arizona Stronghold and Caduceus to offer a multi-course gourmet meal with wines featured in the film to accompany the screening. So, for oneophiles, the documentary lover, or just the hardcore fans of Maynard, have we got an event for you! For those who feel the feast screening is a bit too decadent, we will also screen the film the following night for general admission prices.

The menu for Friday’s Feast SOLD OUT screening will include:

Chicken liver ravioli with Tazi beurre blanc sauce
*paired with Arizona Stronghold 08 Tazi White

Parsnip bisque with crispy pork belly
