Wine and Food Pairing
It’s almost time! The kitchen is really excited for April 12th. The menu is set and the wines are almost picked out. We are going to taste the desert wine selections this Wednesday. I do know that for the dessert wine we’ll be pouring a really big, flavorful selection.
This pairing is going to be wonderful! We have several large format bottles to pour for the event.
We have just a couple of seats left. I hope to see you there.
The kitchen team is also gearing up for the new spring menu selections. Spring is such a special time of year for Chef’s. This is the time that all the new growth from the plant kingdom start to blossom. We have ramps, nettles, dandelion, morel mushrooms and wild mustard starting to pop up. The herb chervil will show up. The spinach, sorrel and radish seeds are planted. It’s time to start eating from the garden again. A very exciting time.
