IRON HORSE VINEYARDS WINE DINNER AT THE FRENCH GOURMET
Iron Horse Vineyards Wine Dinner at The French Gourmet was fantastic. The French Gourmet chefs paired five delicious courses with six delicious Iron Horse Vineyards wines for the guests attending the Wine Dinner.
The French Gourmet is part restaurant, part wine boutique, and part French bakery. It combines the elegance of an old world café with the casual ambiance of a neighborhood eating establishment. They offer California influenced French cuisine, a great international wine selection, and amazing assorted bakery delights. The French Gourmet has been voted the Best French Restaurant in San Diego year after year.
Iron Horse Vineyards, “Where Rustic Meets Elegance”. Iron Horse Vineyards is located in Sonoma County and is an independent estate family owned winery. Iron Horse Vineyards offers spectacular views of Sonoma with rolling hills of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapevines. Three generations live on the property and produce exclusively estate bottled wines.
Our favorite Wine Dinner courses were the Scallop Saffron Risotto paired with the Iron Horse 2015 Estate Chardonnay and the Duo of Filet Mignon with Pinot Demi-Glaze and Salmon Dijonnaise paired with the Iron Horse 2013 Estate Pinot Noir and 2014 Wedding Cuvee. All of the food tasted great and the wines perfectly complemented the food. We bought several bottles of the Pinot Noir to enjoy again at home.
The French Gourmet owner Michel and Iron Horse Vineyards representative Jennifer both provided information about the food and wine and kept our wine glasses filled throughout the evening.
We truly enjoyed the Iron Horse Wine Dinner at the French Gourmet and look forward to attending the 10th annual special wine dinner event next year.
Cheers!
