Jackson’s Steakhouse is proud to partner with Napa Valley wine vintner, Garrett Ahnfeldt, of G Wine Cellars, to present a wine and food event, “A Taste of G Wine Cellars,” on Thursday, March 13, at 5:30 p.m. at Jackson’s Steakhouse.
The focus of G Wine Cellars is on producing small lots of premium wine from different growing regions of Napa Valley. Their ability to control the variables in the vineyard by maintaining and farming their small block vineyards themselves, allow the wines to be a greater reflection of the distinct characteristics of the region and less an individual farming practice. Spotlighting the great mountain districts of the Napa Valley as the main grape source exposes the true, bold, tannin-structured-style wines that G Wine Cellars creates.
With this as the inspiration, Garrett Ahnfeldt has hand selected four stellar wines to complement a selection of Chef Miller’s dishes. In addition, Ahnfeldt will be attending the dinner to share his stories about the winery and answer any questions.
The featured presentation for the evening is as follows:
