TUDOR Winemaker's Dinner at Michel's
Cost: $95++

A wine dinner featuring Radog and Tudor. These handcrafted wines utilize fruit selected from small, family-owned vineyards throughout the Monterey area. In a world of increasing mass production and mechanization, Dan prefers to handcraft small fermentations using traditional techniques like mixing by hand and aging in French barrels. It truly is the simple things in life—food, wine, friends, and kite-boarding (Dan’s other passion)—that can give the most pleasure.

Menu:

∞ diver scallop wrapped in duck prosciutto
radog rosé of pinot noir, central coast, 2006

∞ key west turtle and chicken chowder
radog dry gewürztraminer, central coast, 2007

∞ duck confit on hirabara greens
radog pinot noir, central coast, 2006

tudor pinot noir, santa lucia highlands, 2005

∞ veal entrecote with barley mashed potatoes
tudor tondre vineyard pinot noir, 2005

Six courses with wine pairings and a chance to meet the winemaker for $95
(plus tax and gratuity)
