Enjoy a trip through the lesser known wine-making regions of the Rhone with your friends at Forage. As is their custom, chef Eric Cooper and wine guru Stan Hilbert will be exploring an array of natural wines (four or five if you get the extra cheese course) from the area as paired with a multi-course menu (four or five if you go for the optional cheese course).
The menu, which you can see in its entirety below, is available in omnivore-, pescatarian-, vegetarian- and vegan-friendly versions to be enjoyed at the restaurant (indoors or out on their heated patio) or as take-out for two.
Dinner costs $95 per person at the restaurant or $150 as a take-out meal for two to share. Peruse the menu(s) and the pairings below then book your table or place your order to-go for a tasty intro to some spectacular new (to you, anyway) french wines.
