Miracle Fruit and Wine Tasting Saturday, August 23, 2008 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm Miracle fruit is more than a grape? In June, I went to a reading of "The Fruit Hunters" and tasted miracle fruit. It's hard to describe and something you have to experience- flavors change making sour things taste sweet, lemons like lemonade, and according to a NY Times article, Tabasco sauce tastes like doughnut glaze. It was intriguing so we're going to reproduce the NY Times tasting and pour barrel samples of our future releases. at Periscope Cellars Tasting fee: $12 (credited towards wine purchase)/Free for Eden Canyon Vineyards Wine Club members

For me, this is a dream come true....My first Filipino food and wine pairing was in New York City with Romy and Amy Dorotan at Cendrillon Restaurant. They changed my perception of Filipino cuisine forever and I am thrilled that they are coming all the way from NYC to treat us. A mailing list member told me about Va de Vi Restaurant in Walnut Creek. I took her advice and went to Va de Vi and was blown away. We're so lucky to have Va de Vi Executive Chef Kelly Degala not only in the East Bay, but also ready to treat us to his art and knowledge. There are limited seats available, so please RSVP. Date: Sunday, April 3, 2005 About the Dorotans and Cendrillon Restaurant: About Kelly Degala and Va de Vi Restaurant: “Va de Vi .. gives diners in Walnut Creek a reason not to go to San Francisco for good food...” wrote San Francisco Chronicle’s Michael Bauer.
