SOLD OUT | Sommelier Showdown Dinner at Dry Creek Kitchen
Description
Be a part of the action in this head-to-head sommelier showdown!
Join us at Dry Creek Kitchen for an unforgettable dinner with courses by Executive Chef Shane McAnelly, Chef Charlie Palmer, Chef Taylor Kelley, and Chef Paul Canales from the Culinary Institute of America - but with a competitive, high-stakes wine pairing twist!
Teams of American and International sommeliers will go head-to-head, selecting wines to accompany a multi-course meal, where YOU will vote for the best pairings. This is an all out battle of skill, knowledge, and palate where you will decide whose wine selection wins it all!
The dinner will be moderated by an all-star panel of judges: executive Wine Editor of Food & Wine Magazine, Ray Isle, Master Sommelier, Evan Goldstein, and senior editor/critic for JebDunnuck.com, Virginie Boone.
