Before the Tasting Room was built, Jackie and I were vaca- Family, Friends & Neighbors Night tioning in the Rioja wine district in Spain and we discovered a $14.95pp; $7.45 children 12 & younger new way to grill meat. Fires made solely from grapevine Thursdays from 5 pm - 8 pm prunings were allowed to burn down to smoking coals and various cuts of meat were then grilled over the coals. The result was something special. The smoldering grapevines imparted a Sunday Suppers subtle smoky herbaceousness to the meat, resulting in a truly $18 per guest; $7.45 children 12 & younger. remarkable meal! Sundays (through October) from 5 pm - 8 pm When plans were underway to build our restaurant, we searched for a way to duplicate the meal we had enjoyed so Reservations recommended much at the winery in Spain. The answer came from a compa- ny based in Los Angeles that had just developed a piece of equipment called a “smoker/cooker.” It is a gas-fired grill with a drawer under the flame, into which aromatic grapevine wood can be placed. The heat from the flame causes the wood to smolder, producing smoke that then rises and flavors the meat on the grill. Our first test of this equipment confirmed that the theory worked beautifully with grapevine prunings. We were thrilled that our Spanish culinary experience could be recreated to be shared with our guests, and our Grapevine Grill restaurant came to be! All of the meat dishes on our menu are prepared on the smoker/cooker with clippings from our Chaumette vines.

We hope you will enjoy this unique and memorable new way that we prepare grilled dishes. . .
