Don't miss an exciting four-evening winemaker dinner series, featuring small production wines from Paso Robles!
We are very excited to announce our next dinner series, including an evening at our Del Mar location, Stratford Court Cafe! For our August offering we're thrilled to share a fantastic line up of 5 micro-production wines from Paso Robles boutique winery, Dresser. Owner and Winemaker, Kory Burke will be joining us for four evenings, including an evening at our Newport Beach location. Dresser Winery is a family-owned and operated, artisan winery located in the Geneseo area of the Paso Robles AVA. Dresser Winery is the next stage of Gelfand Vineyards. It embodies a sincere sense of passion for all aspects of wine making from farming to sharing wines with the guests who become extended friends and family. This will be a great chance to sample some of the vast array of varietals crafted by a grassroots winery. These wines are the epitome of boutique and are not found outside of the winery. To showcase these wines, Chef Erin has created an elevated, seasonal pairing menu. You won't want to miss this memorable evening of wine, food and conversation!
Please note, this will be an outdoor event, a light sweater or jacket is recommended.
Each selection will be paired with its own wine inspired dinner course, prepared by Chef Erin Sealy. Chef Erin specializes in pairing food with wine, with a slightly different approach than most. Prior to creating a menu, each wine is tasted and reviewed and then she creates a food pairing, highlighting the nuances of each wine. This concept creates a dinner and pairing experience with layers of complexity and unique creations which exemplify the enjoyment of each wine. With a passion for food and wine, Chef Erin delights attendees with a detailed account of the pairing concept and cooking techniques that create each course. Expect a fabulous evening of wine, food and educational insights! Seating is limited. Please see below for additional dinner details and a registration link.
