Frankie's Pizza & Pasta Wine Blending Party
We would like to invite you to a very special Food and Wine event. Frankie's Pizza and Pasta, and our good friends at Icon Cellars will be hosting our Second Annual Wine Blending Party, to be held at the winery in Carnation, on Thursday, May 23rd, beginning at 6:30 pm.
Frankie has been working alongside Jim Garner, owner and winemaker of Icon Cellars, in creating a special House Red wine for the restaurant, a “Super Tuscan” style blend; made of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and a touch of Syrah. The first vintage (which some of you helped to blend) is nearly ready to bottle. The blending party was such a huge success that we decided to do it again this year.
We’ll begin the evening with a casual reception of antipasti, grilled pizzas, and barrel tastings of Icon Cellars fabulous wines, including last year’s blend. Then, after Jim conducts a brief training in blending wine, we’ll turn you loose to create your own blend. At the end of the night each couple will go home with a bottle of their own making; but not before celebrating with a little homemade Limoncello and light dessert.
Cost of participation is $48 per person, plus tax, pre-paid. Tickets are available through Frankie's. Space is limited, so we suggest that you purchase your tickets ASAP.
If it is inconvenient for you to stop by the restaurant to purchase your tickets, you may contact us with the names of the attendees and your credit card information at (425) 883-8407. If you do so, please speak to a manager.
We expect this to sell out fast so don't put off your registration.
We look forward to seeing many of you there!
