Winemaker Dinner at Brooks June 9
Tuesday, June 9th, 6:30 p.m.
Vino V Wines will be bringing five of its wines to Brooks restaurant for a winemaker dinner. Here’s what they have to say about their products: “Focusing on fruit grown in the cooler regions of Santa Barbara County, our goal is to bring you wines that show a sense of place and bring you pleasure. We have recently released our amazing 2005 Syrah from the White Hawk Vineyard. Other wines available include a zesty, mineral-y, no oak Chardonnay and an earthy Pinot Noir from the Solomon Hills Vineyard in the Santa Maria Valley as well as the latest version of our Confundido blend (80% Syrah and 20% Pinot Noir) – neat stuff.”
Chef & owner Andy Brooks will be making five courses of food to match, including an Alaskan halibut starter with fava-bean puree, crispy pork belly with blackberry glaze, miso-rubbed tuna, buffalo steak, and a mocha-chocolate tart. The price is $95.
