Jordan Estate Wine Dinner
June 11
, 2009
Victory Tavern City Grille is hosting a celebration of Sonoma County’s Jordan wines on Thursday, June 11. A mingling reception with passed Chef's Selection hors d’oeuvres will kick off a relaxed evening around the table enjoying four courses of culinary inspirations from Chef Jim Oetting – all paired with Jordan’s wines, known for combining the artistry of the old world with the technology of the new.
Kathleen Oliver, Regional Sales Director for Jordan Winery, will be on hand to present the wines and answer questions. Among the highlights of the evening will the 2000 and 2001 vintages of Jordan’s Sonoma County Cabernet. The bouquet of the 2000 vintage offers subtle notes of cassis, black cherry currants and chocolate and is a richly textured wine with lush, ripe flavors of blackberry, bing cherry, cassis and raspberry. The 2001 vintage of Cabernet Sauvignon was fermented slowly and received a gentle extended maceration in order to extract, soften and stabilize the lush, elegant tannins and concentrated flavors from the fruit before pressing. Slight earthy notes of tobacco and cedar and a subtle framework of oak complete this delicious wine.
