Synopsis:
Hilmy Cellars has teamed up with Cru Wine Bar to showcase 4 different wines expertly paired through a three hour - four course dinner. The head chef and winemaker will be at the actual event describing how they paired the meal and also educating about the wine.
Themed Event Details:This event is specifically designed to educate and give you the best personal experience possible. In a small group of less than 15, you will go through the different courses and enjoy the expert pairing of the different food choices. With this event you will receive a special souvenir wine glass, wine guide, and the head chef and winemaker will be at the actual event describing how they paired the meal and also educating about the wine. Hilmy Cellars is one of our favorite vineyards because they take a great deal of care to make a small selection of wine that they can be truly proud of instead of making dozens of different types of wine to appeal to the masses. The palette of their wines is a higher level and the expertise of all of their staff is top notch. Cru wine bar is a restaurant that we frequently work with because of their professionalism, excellent food, and their obvious fondness and knowledge of food and wine pairing.
