On the weekend of November 7th and 8th, the Wine Road is hosting a very special affair along the wine road—A Wine & Food Affair.
If you are a wine lover who is also foodie, or just enjoy scrumptious food paired with delicious wine, this is one affair you don’t want to miss.
This two-day event gives ticket holders the opportunity to drive from winery to winery to taste wine and food while enjoying the autumn colors that decorate the countryside. With over 100 wineries participating, visitors will have more than enough choices.
Here are just a few of the recipes that will be served:
Thai Spiced Butternut Squash Bisque—Comstock Wines
Prosciutto, Asparagus, and Green Onion Pizza—D’Argenzio Winery
Chocolate Raspberry Truffles—Ektimo Wines
Duck Breast with Zin & Cherry Reduction—Gustafson Family Vineyard
Moroccan Lamb Ragout—Joseph Jewell
Stubby’s Smoked Pulled Pork Sliders—Malm Cellars
Brad’s Award Winning Dry Rub Ribs—Mercury Wine
Pork Cheek B L A T—Mutt Lynch Winery
Chicken & Sausage Jambalaya—Robert Young Estate Winery
Grilled Rare Skirt Steak with Picholine Chimichurri Sauce—Starlite Vineyards
The full mouthwatering list of over 100 food pairings is available on the Wine Road site.
Best of all, if you fall in love with a wine and food pairing, you can purchase the wine at the winery and do your own pairing at home. All the recipes will be on the Wine Road website by the weekend of the event and remain on the site so you’ll always have access to them.
If you’d like to browse the recipes from the 2014 Wine & Food Affair, you can view all of them at recipes.wine-road.com.
Ticket sales end on November 2nd, so if you want to have a weekend affair with wine and food, don’t wait too long to order your tickets.
Happy sipping!
