Brad thought it would be a good time to stretch his wings and do a little cooking. The theme was geared to white wines with a heavily vegetarian menu laced with seafood. Brad suggested the pairing options and we did our best to comply - some of us better than others :). The menu turned out to be really fun wth the highlight being a Smoked Salmon & Leek Tart with Asparagus & Mousseline Sauce (among many very fun dishes). All of the wines paired nicely and showed quite well. Thanks to Brad for his industrious efforts and to Chris and Jules for the sticky smorgasboard we finsihed with. We will all send a bill for our diabetes treatment at Mayo.

Pale straw color. Apple peel, lots of green tree fruit, lean, quite tart, very wooly, mineral, very subtle bubbles. Unmistakeably Chenin.
