In the Drink: Dudley's has a fine wine collection
Debbie Long's tenure as a restaurateur has been an educational journey, particularly regarding wine. When Dudley's opened in the early 1980s, the choices were primarily house white, red and rosé, with perhaps a carafe of this or that now and then.

At the time, the celebrated concert album MTV Unplugged that had re-established him as pop music royalty was already part of his legacy, countless TV appearances were underscoring his appeal to multiple pop generations, and a succession of new and reissued Columbia recordings were reaffirming a knowing jazz heritage that always has ignited Bennett's finest music and his most engaging singing.
