Carneros Bistro & Wine Bar Salt and Sparkling Wine Dinner March 14, 2010

Chef Janine Falvo and Sommelier Chris Sawyer are pairing with representatives from Gloria Ferrer for the popular 4th annual Salt and Sparkling Wine Dinner. Chef Falvo delves extensively into the myriad uses of salt: as a flavoring agent, a preservative and as an accent. Demonstrating the wisdom behind the long classic pairing of champagne and caviar, over the course of the five-course meal guests will experience how well the two tastes pair together. Enjoy Cured sturgeon, Hawaiian blue prawns with house-made citrus-nori salt and ginger vinaigrette, Quail with foie gras vinaigrette, Berkshire pork three ways and Ricotta cheesecake with strawberry fleur de sel ice cream all paired with Gloria Ferrer wines.
