All a 'grape' can do

This past week we held one of our back-to-back events, a winemaker dinner on Thursday then a tasting here at the shop on Friday evening. Our guest for these events was Javier Bayona, from Bodegas Chavarri, located in the Rioja Region of Spain. We had scheduled these events many months ago when Javier was in the shop so that we could taste his portfolio of wines. We are always so honored when a winemaker or winery owner makes the trip from Europe just for events here in our “small-ish” wine community of North Idaho! It was a fabulous pair of events and we can’t thank Javier enough for making the journey, especially since it was complete with a 4-hour delay in Denver due to snow. As always, the wine dinner at Fleur de Sel was exceptional. Not only was the food and service all we have come to expect from Laurent and Patricia and their team at “FDS,” we are always amazed at how Laurent embraces the origin and adapts his classical French training to other cuisines, in this case Spanish fare.
