Dear wine friends in Washington DC and Northern Virginia,
The RIESLING SUMMER 2014 has some more great events to offer for the city dwellers in DC and a bit further out for the folks who like being surrounded by nature:
June 25th: wine pairing dinner with German and Austrian wines at restaurant 2941 in Falls Church, VA. Chef Bertrand Chemel will surprise us with a fantastic menu matching the wines selected. Bertrand Chemel is an extraordinary chef and I am very sure that he would have earned a Michelin-star if there would be a Michelin guide for this area. The setting of this restaurant is also very beautiful, very serene and perfectly interwoven with its surrounding nature. I am very proud to team up with him to make this dinner happen.
June 29th: wine pairing dinner with German wines at restaurant B Too in Washington DC. This is one of the newest, hippes restaurants in town with a lively ambiance and a wonderful chef. Chef Bart Vandaele is one of the best chefs in DC and will create a very creative menu matching German Rieslings. I am proud to team up with him again (some of you might remember the Lafon-Rochet dinner in May, where he went the extra mile to create those absolutely outstanding courses to go with the wines) to organize this dinner.
The German Wine Princess Sabine Wagner, elected after a stiff knowledge competition to become the German Wine Ambassador for one term, will be in town for one week and will moderate both dinners and will tell you everything you want to know about German wine.
Please make your reservations directly with the restaurants.
Hope to see you there.
