Cooking Show with Guest Host and Club Members Mathew and Lynn Denette
Exploring wine is one of Matt and his wife, Lynn’s, many adventures. Like the many other adventures that Matt and Lynn fill their lives with, “the trails not yet explored are the most interesting because we never know what’s around the next bend and who you are on the adventure with changes everything.” Matt and Lynn’s wine adventure is much like all their others, discovering what’s around the next bend and meeting new people.
Ken, Chuck, and I were happy that Matt and Lynn found us around the next bend. They have been visiting us and enjoying our wine for years now. Matt and Lynn have become more than just customers and club members. They have become dear friends and companions as we venture around the next bend together.
Matt and Lynn have become dedicated fans of our Monday night show. They have been following along exploring the many wine and food pairings along the way. When we did our first cooking show a few weeks ago, Matt and Lynn were at home following right along, adding their own ideas to everything we suggested.
Matt was inspired. He began exploring ideas of his own and sharing them with us, so we invited him to join us live and prepare some of his fun and exciting ideas and wine pairings with you.
For our show tonight, Matt acquired, directly from France, escargot. He will be spinning a few crepes crafted with a blueberry wine batter with apple-blueberry wine filling. He will create a beurre au melange with baguettes and sample Red Scare with foie gras and a few other French and exotic foods they have discovered in their experimenting. We will be paring Hermit Woods wine, primarily available in NH Liquor Stores and other wine shops.
We will be sampling Heirloom Crabapple, an award-winning medium sweetness, tangy wine. Petite Blue, a Burgundy-style dry blueberry wine with characteristics of pinot noir. Three Honey Gold – a light, intense, long-lasting, complex wine aged in French oak. Of course, Matt’s favorite, Red Scare – as Matt describes, “the most unique multi berry melomel imaginable,” made with blueberry, blackberry, raspberries, and honey.
Hope you can join us for this fun event. You can tune in on Facebook or YouTube.
