    Manifesto Wine Dinner
    Special Quest Speaker-Owner Jamie Whetstone
    4 courses-3 wines
    Tuesday February 8, 2011
    $35
    6:30 pm
    Meet Jamie Whetstone from 6:30-7
    And try some of his flagship
    Whetstone Pinots and Syrahs

    Dinner will start at 7pm
    Jamie’s Bio
    “Manifesto! CEO and Winemaker Jamey Whetstone grew up in the deep, deep Southeast. Before his restaurant career could grind all the sweet edge off life—like surfing and, well, living—Jamey quit and turned his enthusiasm for wine into a life where working and passionate edge are one in the same. From the bottom rung as a “cellar rat” at Turley Wine Cellars, Jamey quickly found his footing in the wine world. He became assistant winemaker at Turley, worked at one of Burgundy’s leading wine houses, Domaine Dujac, planted 30 acres of hillside vineyard, learned Spanish, and founded Whetstone Wine Cellars and Whetstone Consulting. Then, because he had too much time on his hands—not likely—or because he wanted to make great wine that everyone could afford, he co-founded Manifesto!.
    Talk about some sweet edge…”

    1st Course
    Chipotle Shrimp Tostadas

    Wine-Manifesto Sauvignon Blanc
    Super floral nose of Paper Whites and peaches, pink grapefruit, papaya, Meyer lemon, and a hint of cut herbs. Bold mouthful of pink grapefruit, orange creamsicle and papaya finishing long and bright with flavors of lime, peach and orange zest.

    2nd Course
    Lentil and Wild Mushroom Shepherd’s Pie with Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes
    and Cabernet Mushroom Sauce

    Wine- Manifesto Cabernet Sauvignon
    As alluded to above, our two sites act as a kind of yen and yang to one another: abundant flavor in one and massive but defined structure in the other. In the nose, the 2008 Cabernet jumps out with bold, heady aromas of right-out-the-bramble blackberry, wild strawberry. A wild yeast fermentation keeps the aromas pretty wild themselves, and the slightest kiss of new oak (6 barrels out of 140) provides a little vanilla as well. The aromas carry over into the mouth, where they are complemented by currants, blackberry, cigar-box tobacco, and a touch of minerality we think of as ‘pencil lead’. All this is framed by a structure of harmonious acid and fine, seamless-but-pronounced tannin that we are very proud of—the wine reads as something much fancier than its presentation

    Entrée
    Duck and Andouille Sausage Gumbo

    Wine- Manifesto Zinfandel
    Ruby red in color. Nose full of red raspberry, bright cherry, blackberry, and plum with secondary aromas of orange peel, rose petal and asian spice. Mouth full of ripe cherry, raspberry, blackberry, and stone fruit. Long finish with secondary flavors of blackberry pie and a hint of baker’s chocolate.

    Dessert
    Sweet-Potato Cake
    with Orange-Cream Cheese Frosting
