Looking for a special wine and food event? Check out Unionville Vineyards in New Jersey. On Wednesday, August 24 the winery will be the site for a Wine & Dine By the Vines event. The event begins at 6:30 with a welcome wine, a Eureka white blend. The dinner location is near the 1858 barn, close to the onsite vineyard. What a great way to celebrate a warm summer day!
The menu includes:
First Course- Great Road Farm Heirloom Tomato Salad stracciatella cheese, summer melon, charred corn, herb oil paired with Amwell Ridge Vineyard Viognier
Second Course- Pan Roasted Sea Scallops smoked eggplant puree, roasted peppers, fennel, aged balsamic paired with Pheasant Hill Vineyard Chardonnay
Third Course- Braised Beef Short Rib onion soubise, kohlrabi-golden beet relish paired with Pheasant Hill Vineyard Syrah
Dessert Course- Peach Hand Pies paired with Cool Foxy Lady ice wine-style dessert wine
In the event of rain, the event will be held over the stone patio which is adjacent to the winery. The ticket price is $99 per person, plus tax and includes the gratuity.
Wine & Dine by the Vines will be catered by Main Street Fine Catering. The menu was insipired by Agricola Community Eatery of Princeton, the parent company of Main Street.

We have visited Union Vineyards a couple of times and enjoyed our visits and the wines. While in the Ringoes region of New Jersey, be sure to check out the winery. Our article about the winery is available online.
