Fine Dining & Premium Wine Tasting

Saturday, March 27, 2010

On Saturday, before the main Fashion Week El Paseo event, the big white tent hosted Fashion Food & Wine, the inaugural event that featured fine dining at its best.

More than 35 award-winning restaurants and their chefs from throughout the Southern California region served up dreamy dishes paired with wines that included Piper-Heidsieck, Silverado Vineyards, Sonoma-Cutrer Vineyards, Masi, Hess Collection, and a selection of vintages and varietals from Wilson Daniels (including Schramsberg, Gainey Vineyard, Girard Winery, and Sonoma Coast Vineyards).
 
Each restaurant has provided its menu in advance so that the festival’s team of experts could pair the cuisine with a particular varietal or brand that best complemented the food.
