The June 26th 2010 KWS Final Meeting/dinner held at the Oxford Suites was a good time for all. The Oxford Suites is a superb venue. The space was perfect for our group of 37 guests. They set up the room to be very functional and it looked great as well. The service was superb and the 4-course dinner was wonderful down to the smallest detail. As an example, the bread was a wonderful seeded whole grain bread accompanied by a herb butter - not the usual uninteresting white loaf and wrapped pad of butter. The entire evening was wonderful. We overwhelmingly recommend the Oxford Suites for an event. See below for the dinner menu and the list of wines. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ The Dinner menu and list of Wines Hors d’oeuvres will be served from trays while the greeter wines are served and will consists of “Gorgonzola - walnut tarts with strawberry red onion jam” and “Croquettes made of potatoes, roasted jalapenos, bacon and goat cheese” The plated salad will be a Spinach – arugula salad that includes shaved fennel, strawberries, French feta and hazelnuts. Served with a green grape tarragon vinaigrette. The greeter wines and the wines served with the salad will be a French champagne (details will be a surprise) and MOUNT NELSON Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough 2008 (91WS Score) The main course choice is either "Cedar Planked wild Sockeye Salmon with Blackberry relish" or "Grilled Flank Steak with red onion marmalade, rosemary demi glace". The main course will be served with Yukon Gold Potato Gratin and Roasted Asparagus The white wine served during the main course is CÔTE BONNEVILLE Chardonnay Yakima Valley DuBrul Vineyard 2007 (WS Score 93). The red wines will be ALTAMURA Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2006 ( 94 WS Score) and ANDREW WILL Sorella Horse Heaven Hills 2006 (95 WS Score, 94 Robert Parker, 94 WE points). The first dessert will be Fresh Berries and Sabayon. The second dessert will be R. L. Buller & Son Fine Old Tokay (91 WS Score, 95 WA Score, 90 WE Score). This wine is an Australian Tokay which turns out to be the Muscadelle grape and is not related to the Tokay of the Alsace or the famous Hungarian sweet wine Tokaji which is mostly the Hárslevelű grape. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ The Kitsap Wine Society was formed to appreciate and study the beauty of wine. We are a group of individuals who gather from time to time to learn about and enjoy wine and food. Our members range in experience from people with wonderful cellars to people with no wine knowledge, but who wish to learn more.
We sponsor wine events and provide information and savings to our members. We also enjoy sharing wine in the good company of others and welcome all levels of experience at our events. Most of the people who attend the KWS functions live on the Kitsap Peninsula, but we welcome guests who happen to be in our area when our events are scheduled.
As a member of the Enological Society of the Pacific Northwest, our members are welcome at any participating chapter including Seattle and the Olympic Peninsula. More information, including registration details, can be found on this web site. Please note you must be 21 years or older to attend KWS events
