With Winemaker Brad Warner and the Wines of Sawyer Cellars
Tuesday, March 9th, 2010 6:30 PM
Last Saturday the family left a/k/a in St. Helena for a quick visit down the road to Sawyer Cellars in Rutherford. With Deborah’s parents and the fabulous Flame in tow, celebrated Sawyer winemaker Brad Warner toured us through the historic venerated site that is Sawyer Cellars. He very much wanted to participate in this most special dinner, planning to personally pour and proffer wines directly from the winery, one wine in particular coming right from the barrel to the Bistro. The wines and menu are as follows: (Chef Keiji Mizukami, who worked for six years at Cafe Jacoulet and now at Bistro 45 for the last 16), shall collaborate with Chef Sergio Ventura and Pastry Chef Felix Noyola on each course.
