A charity event pairing great wines with an extraordinary tasting menu by an amazing chef.
No notes were taken as we were too busy with hosting activities which were of paramount importance. What a great night for an even better cause enriching the lives of people with disabilities through adaptive recreation focusing on educational efforts on children with cognitive and developmental disabilities in addition to disabled veterans.
Side by side tasting with wonderful spoon Poke, Humus and grilled veggies for the Vegans (enjoyed by all) along with a tasty ocean trout flatbread. Excellent!
The three were paired with a very tasty short rib ragu over penne and the remaining flatbread and grilled veggies.
Both wines decanted for over two hours and served blind, before and after the Prime Tenderloin.

The wines were decanted for over two hours and served with super tasty lambchops. Great pairing and fun flight.
Look forward to hosting a larger event in 2020 with even better wines!Wonderful event- thank you to all those that joined.

Flight of White vs Rose. No new notes on the Salmon. Always solid. The white was a good QPR, nothing remarkable but easy drinking.

Nice flight between the white and the rose. Salmon was the clear favorite but without having a preconceived opinion on this inexpensive champagne, I was presently surprised.
