1st Course
Shrimp Scampi Bruschetta
Wine-BloodRoot Chardonnay, Sonoma County
“Chardonnay gets a bad rap but when done well it maintains its status as one of the best white wines of the world. Here we start with prime cool climate fruit, preserve its energy through cool fermentation and use of mostly stainless steel and neutral oak. Finally, we give it that final kiss of plushness with a judicious use of new French oak barrels.”
2nd Course
Veal and Mushroom Pasta with Tomato Cream
Wine-BloodRoot Coastal Pinot Noir, California
" The 2023 Coastal California Pinot Noir is an elegant wine that wouldn’t be out of place with bottles costing twice as much. Up and down the dramatic coastline of the Pacific Ocean provides a regular cooling effect for Pinot Noir, allowing it to extend ripening and develop the grape variety’s singular charms.”
