The Wise Old Dog Wine Tasting Dinner

Park and Oak hosted a Summer Wine Tasting Dinner and we had an excellent meal with terrific wines. Started with a Reception Cocktail featuring Aperol, Pamplemousse and Prosecco to accompany a duo of crispy Arancini balls swimming in a luxurous tomato sauce. Course One was a Crispy Green Tomato with a dollop of cotija paired with a Zonin Soave Classico 2017. Liked the wine better than the tomato. Poached Shrimp with a dill aioli with a Ca'Bolani  Sauvignon 2017 rocked the palate and made a great penultimate treat to this dinner. Ending with slice of Roasted Breast of Duck with a matchstick pile of green apple and studded with dried cranberries Sangiovese le Focaie 2015, we were in a blissful state of culinary perfection.
