Bistro

The Bistro at Red Newt Cellars is committed to presenting cuisine that reflects the subtle seasonal variations of the region’s agriculture. To that end, Debra changes the entire menu every 3-4 weeks. She starts by contacting local farmers to obtain feedback on what is available right then and what is the freshest and the best. From there, she creates original recipes and dishes literally from the ground up.

Winemaker's Table July 25th Print

---SOLD OUT---  NEXT DINNER AUGUST 15th ---

What is a winemaker's table, you might ask? Well, one thing about we winemakers is that we love to eat delicious food and drink good wine in presence of great company. That is what life is about, isn't it? And we (Brandon and I) have the great luxury of being winemakers at a winery that also boasts a terrific restaruant with an absolutely inspirational chef (Debra, my wife too!). Once a month we gather at an informal table, choose a trio of wines that we have a hankering to enjoy with our meal, and invite a group of friends (that would be you!) to enjoy the evening with. 

Menu below!
