The Menu
As guests arrived, they were greeted with an exquisite selection of hors d’oeuvres. The Scallop Toast Crostini offered a delightful combination of fresh seafood with avocado, complemented by preserved orange zest and crispy banana. Another standout was the Goat Cheese Crostini, garnished with strawberries and green peppercorn, creating a balanced flavor profile. For those who appreciate a hint of richness, the Beef Tartare Crostini adorned with black garlic aioli added a savory touch. These delicacies were perfectly paired with House of Mustaine's Elysian Fields, a refined Verdicchio that enhanced the fresh ingredients beautifully.
The first course, a vibrant Summer Salad featuring Gulf shrimp, spring mix, kale, citrus, feta, and seed brittle finished with charcoal vinaigrette, was complemented by the delicate House of Mustaine She-Wolf, a Tempranillo Rosé. This pairing highlighted the salad's layers of flavor while maintaining a refreshing balance.
Next, guests savored Duck Confit served with collards and a luscious blackberry sauce. This rich dish married seamlessly with House of Mustaine's Holy Wars, a Montepulciano that added depth and complexity to the meal.
The evening continued with a showstopper: 72 Hour Tri-Tip, grilled to perfection, accompanied by aleppo summer squash, pecans, dried black cherries, and red wine jus. This hearty main course paired excellently with House of Mustaine's Almost Honest, a robust Cabernet Sauvignon that elevated the flavors of the tri-tip and harmonized with the dish's earthy notes.
To conclude the evening on a sweet note, guests indulged in Berries n’ Cream, featuring mascarpone, chantilly cream, fresh berries, and shortbread cookies. This light and refreshing dessert was the perfect finale, beautifully paired with the remainder of the evening's selections.
