Peter Pratt's Inn
Tasted Wednesday, June 2, 2010 by Vinomarcus with 784 views
So, the first Wednesday of June rolled around and our group gathered to eat, drink and make merry. We also gathered to bid farewell to one of our members and welcome in a new oenophile. Our long time buddy Mark Rink is moving out west, Arizona specifically. So it was sad to know this was his last dinner with us. Our newest member, Andy fit right in and was eager to join the fun. To mark this special occasion, we requested Jon Pratt to match our wines to different courses. We all emailed our wine choices for the evening and Jon matched them up to the menu he prepared for us. The pairings went very well and the food was sublime.
Introductory Wine
Lobster Crepe in sweet corn sauce and tarragon over radish salad
Lamb Kebob over tomato, masala couscous
Crispy Duck Confit over pear and mango salad
Lamb Bolognese over egg noodles
Grilled prime ribcap and Porcini Mushrooms
Prime Delmonico Steak truffle sauce, arugula salad
Assortment of local cheeses
Dessert was homemade blueberry ice cream.
This was a great event and a lot of fun. It's sad to see Mark leave, but at the same time very nice to welcome Andy aboard.
