We were absolutely delighted to host Peter Franus earlier this week for our final winemakers dinner of the year. Peter makes exceptional wines in California respecting tradition and relying on his intuition.
Peter Franus Wines is a small operation producing less than 1000 cases of each of their artisan wines. With access to the best grapes in the Napa Valley, their philosophy is to produce delicious wines that stand out from the crowd.
Guests enjoyed a four course menu featuring an Asian Seafood Salad with a crisp Sauvignon Blanc, Monkfish paired with a Napa Valley Albariňo, Slow-cooked Shoulder of beef both cooked in and served with Zinfandel all finished off with a compote of Winter Fruits.
Our winemaker’s dinners will be back next year, keep a look out for details.
