Holiday wines & movies : Kevin Kenny of Door 24 and film director Jerry Vasilatos

Kevin Kenny of Door 24 in Bucktown was our featured guest this week. We talked about Kevin’s path to wine, his decision to open a business, and, because ‘tis the season, holiday wines and good pairings with your favorite traditional foods.

We also welcomed special guest Jerry Vasilatos, an independent film director and producer who created Solstice, the very first Lifetime Channel Christmas special. Set in 90s Chicago, the film has proved a sentimental favorite that continues to attract attention decades later, spawning an award-winning documentary about its production and even garnering a recent mention in Film Threat.
