Rombauer Vineyards Wine Dinner
September 15 2020 | 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM4024 Campbell Ave, Arlington 22206
* THIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT *
Welcome back to the Cheesetique Wine Dinners—We can't wait to host you again!
Our full restaurant will be dedicated to this festive event, with maximum spacing to give each party plenty of room to relax and enjoy. Whether this is your first time dining out in a while or your fiftieth, you will be able to fully embrace the menu, service, and spirited instruction that our wine dinners have become known for. Because of increased spacing, seating is very limited, so we encourage you to reserve soon.
The evening features four courses expertly paired with four world-class wines from Rombauer Vineyards. With a portfolio so acclaimed and renowned, we decided to include some of their more exclusive offerings—to show you a side of Rombauer that few get to taste.
The menu is equally special. The great-aunt of Rombauer's founder, Irma Bombauer, was the original author of The Joy of Cooking. As an homage, Chef Natasha has built our menu around that seminal cookbook.
