Open Doors: The Secrets to Pairing Wine & Food
2026-04-17 11:00 - 12:15 | HJW Vineyard, 3962 NY-14, Dundee, NY, 14837, United States
Wine and food pairings can feel either instinctively natural or unexpectedly surprising. Entire books have been devoted to the subject, and the “rules” can seem endless. Still, the question remains: what is the correct pairing? Is it wrong to pair a high-acid Riesling with a marbled cut of red meat? Is it surprising that Champagne goes perfectly with potato chips? You be the judge as Sommelier Maris Garden shares her expertise.
Tickets are $60 per person and $45 per Kabinett member. Please login to receive your Kabinett discount.
To taste through our full lineup of wines please make a separate tasting reservation. We’d suggest any time after 12:30pm.
