Speaker-Zoe Curren from Premium Brands
$50
1st Course
Nashville Hot Fried Oysters
Wine-Angels and Cowboys Brut Sparkling Wine, California
“Produced in the Methode Traditionelle, this wine exhibits a terroir note in its minerality from vineyards in Northern California. Apples and tapioca meld with notes of fresh brioche on nose and palate. Lightly prancing bubbles emit a burst of energetic lemon verbena. A lovely, creamy finish follows.” 90 pts
2nd Course
Spinach, Bacon and Mushroom Crepes
Wine-Elizabeth Spencer Grenache, Mendocino
“Dark in color, this Grenache delivers exotic and alluring aromas of fresh raspberries and orange peel. The wine is lively and light on the palate, with an acidity that refreshes and supports the fruit flavors from the front to the back. Black cherry, plum, and a subtle zestiness linger on the finish.”
Entrée
Seared Beef Filet and Frites
Compound Butter
Wine-The Mill Keeper Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley
“The wine is lively, fresh, and balanced with soft, supple tannins giving it an elegance and complexity that can only be achieved by blending across multiple vintages. The aroma begins with lovely red cherry and dried cranberries. Notes of violet and nutmeg interplay with hints of vanilla bean. The palate offers more cranberry, wild berries, and plum with subtle hints of cherry cola, licorice, and barrel spice. The wine develops on the palate with lively acidity that offers balance to graceful layers of red and black fruit. Transform an otherwise ordinary weeknight by pairing it with your favorite grilled red meats, tender roasts, or robust cheeses.”
