Chef Dez

What a great evening! Our first cooking class offering took place on October 2nd, and Chef Dez taught us some amazing new recipes and shared with us valuable cooking tips. Guests first toured the winery and tasted wines in our tasting room, then headed over to the coach house where we sipped on Ghost of the Bogs white cranberry and Mighty Fraser red cranberry wine.

Chef Dez taught us how to make the most amazing side dishes to accompany Thanksgiving Day dinner, and of course we sampled his delicious recipes. The Cranberry Bread pudding with Whiskey Sauce was so perfect with our Saucy dessert Cranberry wine…

Chef Dez will be joining us again soon, so don’t miss out this time! Thank you to all of our guests and to Chef Dez, for making it such a fun evening. Chef Dez on Cooking Vol. I and II cookbooks are available in our store for only $17.95.

If you have been around the winery lately you will have seen a lot of work being done in the back, as we finish off our newest batches of Mighty Fraser and Saucy. Throughout this coming week both batches will be bottled and on shelves by early next week. The newest Valley Girl and Sweet Nothings are next on the agenda, and will soon be joining the new cranberry batches on the shelf.
