Pellana Wine Dinner

Pellana, a high-end steak house in Peabody, is hosting their first wine dinner on Tuesday, January 29th, 2007 at 6pm. This dinner is being presented by the Pellana Wine Director, Nick Grimshaw & Brian Lamb, owner of the OurGlass Wine Co. in Saugus.

The wine dinner is a five-course meal including:

First Course
Oysters on the Half Shell With a Champagne Mignonette
Paired with a NV Krug Grand Brut. Reims, France

Second Course
Wedge Salad, Apple smoked bacon, Great Hill Bleu cheese
Paired with 2005 Jermann Dreams, Friuli, Italy

Third Course
Prime Veal Chop with a Rich Portabello Mushroom Demi Glace & Traditional accompaniments
Paired with 2004 Duckhorn 3 Palms Merlot, Napa, California

Fourth Course
Prime Porterhouse with Traditional accompaniments
Paired with a 1999 Dominus Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa, California

Fifth Course
Seven layer Chocolate Cake topped with smooth ganache
Paired with a 2004 Giovanni Allegrini, Rechioto della Valpolicella Classico, Veneto, Italy

The wine dinner costs $200 per person (which includes all taxes and gratuities). This is pricey but you should consider the type of meal you are getting and the high end wines that are being served. I have been to Pellana before and the food is excellent. Based on my previous experiences, I would expect this wine dinner to be very good.

Limited Seating Available. To reserve your seat, you can e-mail Nick Grimshaw at ngrimshaw@pellanarestaurant.com. You may also call Nick or Daniella LaRosa, Pellana Operations Manager, at 978-531-4800.
