Summertime, and the grilling is easy. This summer, Cakebread Cellars is offering a signature cooking class on Friday, July 8 and Saturday, July 9 with a focus on grilling with wine! Below, I’ve included details on delightful recipes for Grilled Herb-Rubbed Lamb Chops, paired with a delicious glass of 2021 Cakebread Cellars Vin de Porche.
Join Cakebread Cellars and heat things up with tasty al fresco recipes from the grill and on the wood fired oven. From start to finish, winery chefs will put together an outdoor menu to enjoy while taking in the beauty of the season in Napa Valley. Just add Cakebread Cellars Vin de Porche!
Since we all can’t be in Napa this July (unfortunately) we have included the recipe and wine pairings for a couple of the featured dishes that will be demoed. Reservations and additional details on the event can be found here. The event will take place at 9:30 AM in the Winery House Kitchen in Rutherford, CA. Looking forward to hearing from you!
