Our Wine Dinner at Rennies - A Great Success

A magnificent setting and venue - Rennies at Acheron, Restaurant and Gallery was the perfect place for our Kinloch Wines Degustation Dinner which was held on Saturday 15th October.  Thank you to Marian Rennie and her staff for a well planned event.  Her chef Said (Sayed) (originally from Eygpt) designed a superb 5 course degustation menu - his mediteranean-french aromas and condiments were delicately matched to our wines and our guests were totally sated.  Guests were greeted with a glass of our Best in State 2008 Don Kinloch Sparkling white served with an eggplant-zuchinni dip topped with labna cheese-yoghurt placed on a toasted crostini.  The first course was Lamb tagine with preserved lemon and house olives paired off with our 2011 Sauvignon Blanc; second course was local Atlantic Salmon and Marina Broth served with our 2009 Chardonnay and 2009 Wild Ferment Chardonnay - both wines had their unique style.  Third course was Rabbit with artichoke & tomato herbed sauce matched to our 2010 Pinot Noir.  The main course was Pressed Duck breast grilled with light egetables and red wine jus paired off with 2010 Pinot Meunier and 2006 Mary Friend Bordeaux Blend.  Wow what an experience - true to our slogan - it's not just about wine...it's about the experience!.  The final course was dessert of course... and this was simply Figs filled with caramelised cherries and minted fruit salsa served wit our 2010 Late Harvest Riesling.  Just the dessert to finish the evening. Well done to Rennies and thanks to our lovely guests who came along and supported our wine dinner.
