Wine Dinner anyone?

Hey Friends
Yesterday I had a good meeting and tasting with Chef Michael Lustig of the Capital City Club in downtown Raleigh. He's excited about some wines we've chosen for an upcoming wine dinner and he's come up with some great ideas for a menu. We'll have a finalized menu and cost for the wine dinner on the web site soon, but in the meantime let me just mention one wine we plan on using: Domaine Serene "Evenstad" Pinot Noir. It's silky, lush, multi-layered and almost chocolatey after it has been open for a while. Chef Lustig's first idea to pair with this wine was a parmesan encrusted lamb with smoked tomato coulis and white truffle. If that sounds as good to you as it does to me, then keep an eye on our e-mails and on the web site for information about the wine dinner in September.
