Named one of Wine & Spirits magazine's top 100 wineries of 2009, Andrew Rich Wines has been crafting distinctive wines in Oregon's Willamette Valley since 1995. Along with Pinot Noir, Rhône Valley varietals from the Columbia Valley--including Syrah, Roussanne, Grenache, and Mourvèdre--take pride of place, though the winery is equally well known for its seductive Gewu?rztraminer dessert wine. Production averages 5,000 cases per year. Mr. Rich will describe the wines paired with each course, while Chef Leonard Hollander will shares his culinary inspiration. DINNER TICKETS are $75 per person. There is a vegetarian menu option (see below). TASTE MENU - Enjoy a taste of each of the wines, along with the featured cheese flight for $30 per person.
