Spend Valentines Day with wine...of course!

As Valentines Day approaches you may be thinking of something special for your sweetie. I know some people think V-day is a “Hallmark” holiday and maybe a little played out but I think it’s just another reason to celebrate with… wine of course. One of my favorite things is a wine pairing dinner. We’ve talked a lot about these dinners before so you might be familiar. I think a wine pairing dinner would be a perfect setting for a V-day experience. If you haven’t experienced one, you’re in for a four or five course meal paired with a complimentary wine. The Chef or Sommelier will thoughtfully prepare the wine to each entrée that will help enhance the flavors in the dish and in the wine. It’s a wonderful way to experience several dishes to see how the wine can compliment the food and how each can bring out certain flavors, aromas and textures in the other.
