About:
A delicious spin on wine tastings. Our Wine Dinners are one of our few offers that do not incorporate hands-on cooking. Instead, guests sit down, meet our lead chef, and enjoy a four course dinner with specially paired wines. With each course, our staff will talk about the food as well as discussing the wine’s taste, variety, background, and vintage. For a food and wine pairing, you’d be hard pressed to find a tastier option.
