first course
Peach and Melon Salad
Warm fruit over baby arugula, radicchio and fresh goat cheese in a honey lemon poppy dressing.
PAIRED WITH
Michael David Chardonnay
2015 | Lodi Appellation
Bursting with aromas of pear, melon, and spiced peach. Bright and crisp with fresh acids, the wine is medium bodied with forward flavors of green apple. Subtle French oak ageing adds complexity with additional notes of honeyed citrus and pear.
second course
Beet Tagliatelle
Roasted red beets with housemade beet tagliatelle over a gorgonzola creme.
PAIRED WITH
Michael David Rapture Cabernet Sauvignon
2013 | Lodi Appellation
92+ points – Robert Parker, March 2016
This wine, from 30-year-old vines of Cabernet Sauvignon aged in 100% new oak, offers up an opaque purple color and a beautifful nose of blackberry liqueur intermixed with licorice, graphite and vanilla. It is spicy and rich, with oodles of cassis fruit, full-bodied opulence and a long, heady finish with velvety tannins.
third course
Pork Tenderloin
Prosciutto-wrapped tenderloin with potatoes, parsnips and brussel sprouts in fig balsamic.
PAIRED WITH
Michael David Gluttony Old Vine Zinfandel
2013/Amador County
94 points – Robert Parker, March 2016
This wine, aged in a combination of new and older American oak, has a dense ruby/plum/purple color and a big, sweet kiss of kirsch liqueur intermixed with licorice, baking spices, tar and Christmas fruitcake. It is peppery, spicy, full-bodied, opulent and a total hedonistic and intellectual turn-on.
fourth course
Dark Chocolate Tart
Milk chocolate ganache with raspberry white chocolate glaze.
PAIRED WITH
Michael David Lust Zinfandel
2012 | Lodi Appellation
93 points – Robert Parker, March 2016
The 2012 Zinfandel Lust offers up great fruit, a full-bodied mouthfeel, rich, deep raspberry and black cherry fruit, pepper and barbecue spice.
