This was the third incarnation of Brad's all Sauternes dinners. This event is always looked forward to by us Sauternes lovers, and we had a nice group of eight (BB, SS, CS, DM, LI, ML, KB, JV). There were a couple of fits and starts before this came off, but when it did - damn, it was glorious. Brad always brings inspired dishes and attention to detail with everything he does. This was no different. The pairings were well thought out and all worked nicely. Our mix of wines was also wonderful, so thanks to all of our guests for sharing great wines. Kudos to Brad for sharing his talents and reminding us of all the ways we could or should be drinking more Sauternes. Cheers, I'm already thinking about the next one!
