March 31: Spring Dinner in Provence. The days are getting longer and the gardens are in full bloom with spring flowers.  Provence is the golden corner of France. Stretching from the Alps to the Mediterranean, and the Rhone to the Italian border, it is a rich study in diversity.  This is the land of flowering Thyme and fragrant Lavender. Join us at the Beechwood Inn for a romantic evening with cuisine from Provence matched to some wonderful wines. Dinner with one glass of each wine is $85.00 per person, plus tax and gratuity. Additional wines may be purchased from our wine list.
