Wine Wandering Wino: Really Unfortunate Timing Edition
Posted by Chris Chamberlain on Fri, Feb 17, 2012 at 7:57 AM
The event that got me so perked up is Vinea's first wine dinner of the new year. In a stroke of brilliance, they are teaming up with their neighbors at Edley's Bar-B-Que and Cliff Creek Cellars from southern Oregon to put on a barbecue wine dinner. Now, barbecue is traditionally difficult to match with wine, but I'm sure that these folks will do a super job at it.
The dinner starts at 5 p.m. on Sunday, Feb. 19, and costs only $30 for five courses and five wines. That looks like an incredible bargain. Check out this amazing menu:
Vinea/Edley's Bar-B-Que Wine Dinner1st Course
Red Red Wine (Merlot/Syrah Blend)
Brunswick stew2nd Course
Cliff Creek Syrah
Smoked Chicken on bed of Micro Greens with Balsamic Vinaigrette3rd Course
Cliff Creek Cabernet Sauvignon
Brisket and Cheese Grits4th Course
Cliff Creek Claret (Cab Franc, Cab Sauv & Merlot)
Baby back ribs with baked apples5th Course
Cliff Creek Cabernet Franc
Pound Cake with Vanilla Ice Cream and Blueberry Rum Sauce
To make your reservation call Edley's at (615) 953-2951. Tell them to hold another one of these again really soon, please! I'll be first in line to sign up.
