WINE & CUISINE : WINE DINNERS
Southern food, perhaps more than any other regional cuisine in America, has long been recognized for its diversity and history, and for the stew pot of cultural influences that have been inherited from unique and authentic African cultures. The style of food originated in the early Colonial period, beginning with the rum and sugarcane plantations of the West Indies and the Creole French and Spanish inhabitants of the Deep South.

They harvested the fields, cleaned the game, ground the spices, cooked the meals and set the standard for southern cooking. They brought with them staples such as peanuts and okra, and adapted immediately the Native American’s predilection to corn. A tradition of food selection and preparation evolved that has withstood 400 years and can be adapted gracefully to new and creative interpretations.
We honor that culinary culture by using the freshest of ingredients harvested from the surrounding waters, woods and local farms to create a one of a kind epicurean experience. This noble fair is highlighted by gathering diverse people sharing the finest wines in picturesque settings thus creating a complete sensory experience.
Join us at our table and become a part of our tradition.
