Shrimp and Scallop Ceviche

A vibrant pairing featuring tender shrimp and scallops marinated in zesty citrus juices, perfectly complemented by the creamy avocado crema. Garnished with tangy pickled red onions and served on a crisp blue corn tostada, this dish highlights the bright acidity and tropical fruit notes of the Sauvignon Blanc.

Stags Leap Napa Valley Chardonnay Karia

Bib Lettuce Wedge Salad

Fresh, crisp Bibb lettuce forms the base of this salad, dressed with a light lemon basil vinaigrette that enhances the Chardonnay’s citrus and floral notes. Topped with golden, crispy cauliflower and crumbled feta cheese, this dish balances creamy, crunchy, and savory elements to complement the wine’s creamy texture and delicate oak influence.

3rd Course

Wine

Stags Leap Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Artemis

Braised Beef Short Rib

Rich, tender beef short rib, slow-cooked to perfection, served atop a silky parsnip purée. Accompanied by roasted Brussels sprouts and crispy fried onions, this hearty dish mirrors the bold, dark fruit flavors and velvety tannins of the Cabernet Sauvignon Artemis.

Stags Leap Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Fay

Hardwood Grilled Prime New York Strip

A succulent, hardwood-grilled New York strip steak, enhanced with a savory rosemary demi-glace. Served alongside sweet, caramelized Cipollini onions, golden seared polenta, and charred grilled asparagus, this course elevates the wine’s elegant structure and earthy complexity.

Dessert Trio

An indulgent finale featuring three exquisite desserts: creamy passion fruit crème brûlée with a caramelized sugar crust, delicate vanilla bean custard-filled pâte à choux, and crunchy almond brittle. This trio harmonizes beautifully with the sweet, luscious notes of the Stags Leap Ptolemy dessert wine.
