Visconti's brought home the bacon and fried it up in the pan!
There are a limited number of things representing true precision in the world to enjoy. Reaching the power band on an Audi TT could be one of them or perhaps attending a ballet or even a Broadway play, for that matter. Things of timing, choreography, planned elegance and purpose. My personal and professional thanks go heartfelt to Dan, Candy, Randy, Steve, Cheryl, Elysia and Kalin of Visconti's for their breathtaking performance at our winemaker's dinner this past Saturday in Leavenworth.
For all of those who attended, it was our pleasure to see you smile, laugh and visit while the courses ebbed and flowed. Your bliss-covered faces confirmed the reasons why I love to make wine. I'll keep those memories in my head during the 5 a.m. trip to get fruit in October and the racking on the ice and snow in December.
Months of planning, wading through worst-case-scenarios and anticipating the flow of the evening all came to the line Saturday night. The room was filled with eager and delightful guests ready to tour wine and food at an enjoyable pace. It had come full circle.
A big "thank you" to Heath Putnam and Charles Smasne for giving some of your time. Health of Wooly Pigs and Charles of Smasne Farms. I appreciate you addressing the room and giving us insight into your operations.
To all those who patiently waited on our over-flow list, I regret you were not able to join us. I thank you for your interest and by committing to the waiting list, you’ve given us reason to consider a “second show” for this annual event.
Until next time…
David
