3/29 – “Ring in the Spring” Four-Course Wine Luncheon Experience Featuring Fascinating Rosés Presented by Robert McFarlane

“Ring in the Spring!”  Le Printemps est arrivé! Spring is here, with fragrant breezes replacing chilly winds; longer, brighter days; the first flowers and new green leaves, and best of all, fresh and delightful rosé wines.

Please join us Saturday, March 29th, as we celebrate the arrival of spring with a delightful tasting and delectable four-course luncheon from the award winning kitchens of L’Auberge Chez Francois, featuring diverse rosé wines from sunny Spain, California and, but of course, France.

Our long-time friend and partner from Potomac Selections, Robert McFarlane, will be with us to present each wine pairing and explain what sets these delectable wines apart from the paler wines of Provence.
To highlight the gastronomic quality of the wines, Chef Jacques and team have created a series of delicious small plates to accompany the rosés and reveal their delectable uniqueness.

Join us in welcoming and celebrating Springtime, tasting these exquisite wines and feasting on Chef’s culinary offerings!
