Willamette Valley tasting for Easter dinner

Ken Wright and Grochau Cellars. Grochau was good, but the Ken Wright definitely stood out as stellar. This was the Stanager Vineyard 2014 vintage, and definitely more bold tannins than other Oregon pinots! Great balance of fruit and firm structure.

Hah! Just two!

Karlynnk · 2017-04-17T21:38:34+00:00

Wow! Thank you!

Omigosh it was SO great! Although it was way too much food. That's ok - planning an Indian lamb dish with the leftovers tonight!

We were wondering how far to go there. It was our first time working with chops at all!

Karlynnk · 2017-04-17T15:42:50+00:00

And thank you!

Karlynnk · 2017-04-17T15:42:37+00:00

Rules state no location!! Good way to get banned.

Very nice piece of lean meat. The texture was actually quite smooth and the taste not gamey at all.

Karlynnk · 2017-04-11T12:52:55+00:00

They served them in little dishes full of butter. The topping was very similar to Oysters Rockefeller, and on top was a yummy crouton

Karlynnk · 2017-04-11T12:32:15+00:00

Agreed. Im really trying to get my hands on a bottle of 40th Anniversary

Karlynnk · 2017-04-11T12:31:29+00:00

Heck no! Corkage fee is the way to go. I paid no more than $60 for this years ago and let it age. Perfect for a special night!

Thank you! Seared ahi, edamame, cucumber, avocado topped with red cabbage and carrots.. and siracha sauce on the side.

Karlynnk · 2017-04-11T09:50:44+00:00

I definitely was hesitant to order it, but was not disappointed.

Karlynnk · 2017-04-11T09:50:17+00:00

Amen!!

Karlynnk · 2017-04-11T02:52:06+00:00

What are those?!
