NICO Loire Wine Dinner

On Wednesday, March 15th we were joined by 24 guests ready to take part in our March Wine Dinner, featuring the Loire Wine region in France.

We were joined by Joe Thomas from Curated Selections and he presented each wine and explained how the wine paired well with the course.

First: Coquille St. Jacques, mushrooms, gruyere, bread crumb served with Domaine Vigneau-Chevreau "Clos du Rougemont" Vouvray 2021. Coquille St. Jacques is a gorgeous, large scallop and Chef Jay served it perfectly seared in a delicious creamy sauce, and topped with cheese.

Second: Cotriade, mussels, swordfish, squid, potatoes leeks, herb white wine broth served with Domaines Vinet "Clos de la Houssaie" Muscadet 2015. This delicious seafood stew was full of rich seafood flavor and had an unexpected, but welcome hint of spice.

Third: Far Breton, strawberries, custard, caramel pecans served with Thierry Delaunay "La Vignette" Touraine Rose 2021. This light, spring dessert highlighted seasonal strawberries as opposed to the traditional prune and crunchy pecans and caramel.

April will be NICO’s last wine dinner until the Fall. To be apart of the experience, join our event email list.
