It’s time to pass a good time!
Let’s Celebrate this Important Day!
Download all the information you’ll need for the class including the pre-class prep list included in the agenda and the recipes. It is ideal that you print those out. Pre-prep is key as we have an amazing menu and we want to give you lots of time to heckle, toast and go at a decent pace for everyone.
Wine Pairing
Bernedette Bagshaw has 15 years in the Wine and Spirits Industry. WSET 3 and Whisky Brand Ambassador. I love to match wine and food together, individually each item may be delicious but a great food and wine pairing creates an experience that can be magical. She has reviewed the tasty treats you are about to cook and has made a wine pairing to serve with it. This is a special order to be brought in for you so you need to order by 3:30pm Nov. 30. bernedetteb@pacificwineandspirits.com.
Wine Selection:
Pierre Sparr Pinot Grigio - 373332 - $21.99
Aromas of fruit, apricots, peach. In the mouth as well softly and minerally with a delicate sweetness-acid-relation, a fancy minerality and a firm racy body (just like Chef Joey)!
Vina Real Crianza - 714335 - $21.99
This wine shows shades of medium to deep shiny cherry colour with a purple background. On the nose, intense aromas of ripe fruits (blackberries, blackcurrants) stand out, complemented with subtle hints of oak. Structure and roundness dominate the palate with a good integration of fruitiness and oakiness. The aftertaste is marked by very well balanced tannins and persistent spicy, toasty and balsamic aromas. A long stay in the bottle is the finished touch to this Rioja Alavesa wine's character.
Dessert Pairing
Taylor Fladgate 10 yr Tawny - 121749 - $31.99
An exceptionally fine old tawny blend, aged for 10 years in oak casks. Elegant and smooth, combining delicate wood notes and rich mellow fruit, it is bottled for immediate drinking. A superb dessert wine, particularly with dishes made with chocolate, coffee or almonds, Taylor's 10 Year Old Tawny may also be served at the end of the meal in the same way as Vintage Port.
Your lagniappe
Pronounced as a French word, lagniappe (lan-yap) is a Cajun-French inspired noun that means “a little extra.” We won’t be covering this in class but you can make these the night before to add to your meal. We wanted you to have a little sumpin’ sumpin’ extra.
