Barrels & Bites: Schmidt Family Vineyards

Join us for seated tasting event unlike all the others. We will be tasting 4 young wines straight from the barrel. These wines were just harvested fall of 2024 and are progressing so well. We will be serving each wine with a small dinner plate to compliment the flavors.

Menu

2024 Chardonnay Reserve - paired with sage, apple and brie grilled cheese.
- This wine is still being aged in the barrel and has gone through Malacotic fermentation giving it all that wonderful buttery chardonnay goodness.  This wine is great with wonderful lemon flavors and such great texture.

2024 Grenache - paired with lamb with mint pesto and berry infused goat cheese
- This is our first vintage of Grenache and we are so excited for it.  It is light, smooth and delicate in the best way with just the right amount of acidity.

2024 Syrah - paired with Beef Shoulder Tender with Béarnaise sauce
- this Syrah has great dark fruit flavors with a touch of roundness and the slightest hint of sweetness as it finishes.

2024 Touriga Nacional - paired with a lavendar brownie
- the wine is packed full of florals like violet, lavender and chartreuse but somehow in a bold package that will be a fantastic way to finish out the night. 

Our usual food and wine menu will be available during the event.
