Shrimply Delicious Pairing with our 2018 Chenin Blanc

We are loving our winter garden! It makes me so happy to walk outside my door and pick the freshest greens for a garden salad to compliment a delicious bottle of wine. 

Looking for an easy dinner idea? Gather some greens and throw some shrimp and veggies together! My dressing of choice to pair with this 2018 Chenin Blanc includes olive oil, fresh squeezed lemon, garlic, shallots, salt, peper, and a touch of Dijon Mustard. 

Yum!

Our Chenin Blanc: 

GOLD 2020 SF Chronicle Wine Competition, BEST IN CLASS & TRIPLE GOLD 2019 Dan Berger's INTERNATIONAL Wine & Cider Competition

The nose is met with delicious aromatic flavors of rustic pear crostata, honeysuckly and a delicate touch of pineapple.  A perfectly balanced, medium bodied, off dry delight!

Pinot & Polenta Winemaker's Dinner 2019

Thank you to everyone that made our 2019 Pinot & Polenta Winemaker's Dinner an overwhelming success! We greeted our guests with a glass of our 2019 Sparkling Rosé with a beautiful appetizer spread.

We put our dinner table outdoors, with a beautiful view of our vineyards, perfect for this time of year. The main dish was a creamy style polenta served with a savory sauce, organic greens, and an assortment of breads. It paired beautifully with our GOLD award winning 2016 Pinot Noir! For dessert, we dished out mini tiramisu cakes, mini limoncello cakes, and double chocolate cakes paired with our brand new surprise release of the Intercoastal Vineyards Dolce Blanc dessert Wine!

We love sharing good food and great wine with our guests, friends, and wine club members. Staying true to Mitch's Italian heritage, wine is food! That's why we make 'em with single vineyard, estate-grown, handpicked grapes.

Cheers, and see you at the next one!

*Our 2016 Pinot Noir won GOLD at the 2018 SF International Wine Competition and the 2019 Monterey Wine Festival.
