PermalinkNew Paired Tasting Flight Experience
This Friday, April 12th, marks the beginning of a new wine & food offering at Parrish Family Vineyard. For many years, Owner and Winemaker, David Parrish and his daughter and General Manager, Cecily Parrish Ray, envisioned offering unique food pairings to accompany their Estate wines. Estate Chef, Rachel Ponce, shares the same vision as David and Cecily to create decadent, wine focused food pairings and offerings. She creates an experience with the new Paired Flight that is unparalleled to what Parrish has offered before.
The entire flight is untraditional and showcases Chef Rachel’s creativity. Her use of ingredients help pull out different elements of the wine, which makes it a fun discovery of how food can work with wine in unexpected ways.
You are invited to join Parrish Family Vineyard for this new wine and food experience on the weekends, Fridays through Sundays, from 11am-4pm. The menu will change with the seasons.
Sauvignon Blanc paired with Grilled Chicken Stuffed Sweet Peppers
Petite Sirah paired with Coffee Crusted Duck Confit

Take a Minute: Racking from Parrish Family Vineyard on Vimeo.
There are 3 times lees racking is done in wine making...
1st racking - Grape solids that are in the tanks
2nd racking - Done 2 to 3 months later in the barrel, lees usually are dead yeast cells and some leftover grape sediment
3rd racking - Happens at the very end of barrel aging, tend to be long-chain tannins that fall out of solution
