Cheese and wine and a really good time
The Dilly Deli will be hosting a "Cheese Tasting & Wine Dinner" with B.R. Cohn Winery Monday, Feb. 26.
But this will be a different sort of wine dinner, as befits B.R. Cohn, a Sonoma Valley estate started by the manager of the Doobie Brothers.
With only five wines in their portfolio, this outstanding source of great Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, and Chardonnay represents the independent minds behind the wines perfectly, Dilly Deli owners Chuck and Robbie Warriner said.
From the winery will be Landon Patterson, who will host the dinner which comes in two parts. The first part wil have Landon pairing the wines with several of Robbie's fine cheeses. Then, for part two, the wines will be matched with Chef Eric's inspired offerings:
Crab Salad
Fresh Virginia lump crabmeat, Napa cabbage, Thai basil, and a vanilla aioli
B.R. Cohn Chardonnay Carneros
Kobe Beef Short Ribs
Braised Kobe beef short ribs & wild mushroom & smoked chestnut risotto finished with a dried cherry drizzle
B.R. Cohn Merlot Sonoma Valley
The cheese course/experience will feature these two wines along with the Cabernet Sauvignon (Silver Label), Cabernet Sauvignon Olive Hill Estate, and the new-to-the-market SyrCab. The cost for the cheese tasting and dinner is just $50 per person, all inclusive. It will start with a reception at 6:30 p.m., and sitting down to cheese and dinner at 7p.m. Call us for reservations at 561-5233.
