We started with Hawley, but they had run out of their Crab Arancini.
Next stop was the Kendall Jackson tasting room. They wouldn't serve their Red Wine-Braised Short Ribs with Truffled Celery Root Puree without first going to their bar and tasting all their wines. After a long day of wine tasting, I couldn't try all their wines again so I opted to skip the dish.
Murphy Goode was serving Posole and this was delicious!
Posole paired with their Snake Eyes Zinfandel.
La Crema was the next winery we visited.
Chanterelle Soup with Turkey & Cranberry Garnish served with La Crema Los Carneros Pinot Noir. This was delicious.
We walked across Healdsburg Avenue along the square and found Thumbprint Cellars.
They were serving Kissable Baked Polenta with Pinot Noir-Braised Wild Mushrooms served with Thumbprint Cellars Nugent Vineyard Russian River Valley Pinot Noir.
Further down Matheson was Williamson Wines. They were serving their food on real chinaware--the first we had seen this weekend.
Grilled Skirt Steak with Chimichurri Sauce served with Williamson Tango Malbec.
Our final stop was Selby Winery. They were serving Lobster Creole but had run out by the time we arrived at 3:30 pm.
It was a great 2 days. We visited wineries we would otherwise have not visited and had some great wine and amazing food. Can't wait for next year!
