Sunday we featured another fabulous Wine and Dine pairing with the Black Sheep. We thoroughly enjoy the wine pairing dinners since it allows us to showcase the magnificent pairings of Staller Estate Wines but also the extraordinary work of Tyler Sailsbery of the Black Sheep. Last Sunday’s Wine and dine pairing was even more special since we had a great, loyal local customer that captured the Wine and Dine process in pictures. Sevie Kenyon from Madison, has been enjoying Staller Estate Wines for many years and has had the marvelous experience of our Wine and Dine pairings several times. Sevie was so impressed with the production, presentation and product that he wanted to capture the experience in pictures. Below is the process from start to finish. Sevie has done a fantastic job in capturing the process, the only thing missing are the smells, swirls and tastes. For that you, will have to attend one of our Wine and Dine pairings.
