5 Course Wine Dinner & Cellar Tasting March 8th 2013
These events were started last year and patrons have been asking for their return. Instead of the same-old Wine Dinner which have become quite “done”, I have opted for a tasting seminar that I lead in our historic wine cellar. We taste a group of six wines that I give background on the wines, locations, grapes and any producer specific information and this is paired with hors d’oeuvres.
After this 30-45 minute tasting, the guest are seated for a pre-fixe tasting menu that they can choose which wines they would like to pair with each course. With the help of our Sommelier, Henri Santarem of course.
The Wines:
2010 Chablis “Fourchaume” 1er Cru, Domaine Jolly et Fils
2009 Chardonnay “Hanzell Vineyard” Zepaltas, Sonoma Valley
2002 Clos-Saint-Denis Grand Cru, Guy Castagnier, Côte de Nuits
