Serrano Ham, Manchego Cheese Croquettes with Sun-Dried Tomato Aioli and Piquillo Pepper Relish
Varietal composition: 100% Sauvignon Blanc 2022 was a warm and early harvesting year for Sauvignon Blanc. Most of the fruit of this wine came from the middle reach of the Russian River. The coolness of the area allows us to pick ripe fruit that still has great acidity. This wine is a special bottling that really showcases the region. Aromas of orange blossom and fresh apple. The palate is crisp with stone fruit, apple and lemon peel. Bright and compelling. Crisp and clean. This wine pairs well with a wide range of foods including shellfish, pasta with lemon sauces or can be enjoyed on its own. |

| Salad Course |
Lobster and Maryland Blue Crab Cake with Lobster Saffron Velouté, Heirloom Tomato, and Arugula Salad and Basil Oil
Varietal composition: 100% Chardonnay In 2022 was a warm harvest year in California with average yields. The fruit of this wine came from Sonoma’s Los Carneros region. The close proximity to the San Pablo Bay makes this the perfect spot to grow the Wente clone. The warm days and cool nights at harvest made this an amazing year for Chardonnay. Golden yellow in color. Rich aromas of granny smith apple, white flowers and citrus notes. Silky texture with flavors of apple, citrus, minerality and a wisp of oak. Finishes with a full and lingering expression of Chardonnay. Pair with roasted chicken, salmon or richer seafood dishes. Also, perfect to drink on its own as an aperitif. |
