Thanks to Jody and Jon McMahon for arranging the IW&FS event at Flintrock Falls. It was an amazing event – every course was more delicious than the previous one, and they were extremely generous with the wines. Once again, we were awed by Chef Chandler Melia, who dazzled us with his creative flair, designing a Tuscan-themed feast especially for us including his signature Four-hour Caprese™, and he paired the courses with some top value Italian wines (see attached menu). A great summer-time was had by all!
