Trinchero Family Estates
They now have a Hospitality Center to house Trinchero's internationally recognized Vine to Dine® wine and culinary education programs. The Hospitality Center features a Tuscan-style culinary center with indoor and outdoor kitchens and dining, vinegar solera, woodburning ovens, reserve tasting room and cellar, and culinary gardens.
The dinner table they setup in one of the barrel rooms.
The barrel room with French oak barrels. These barrels cost about $1,200 and are only used once.
Fermentation tanks.
Tasting room.
The new kitchen in the Hospitality Center. The kitchen opened two days before we arrived.
Myself in the kitchen. I'm really uncomfortable in any kitchen without my whites.
I thought this was cool, right outside the kitchen was a wall with hundreds of burning candles.
A view from outside the kitchen.

Balsamic "Air"
I was experimenting with balsamic vinegar and inadvertently crossed over several different science basics and came up with “Balsamic Air” [Y x B / K° = WTwow!]. This is a cross section view of two large slabs stacked on top of each other. You can see the air-like texture that makes it eat like meringue. A 12”x 12” x ½ “piece barely weighs 5 oz. The applications for this are….well, I’ll get to that later.
Fried Chicken Love
Unquestionably fried chicken is something people are passionate about. It ranks right up there with barbeque. There's regional favorites and family favorites, brines galore, secret seasoning recipes, and the list goes on. Fried chicken has gone up-scale in places like Thomas Keller's ad hoc Restaurant in Yountville where he serves it at least once a week. Does the US have a global dominance on Fried Chicken?......I don't know, Yelp lists 10 pages of Korean fried chicken restaurants in NYC alone!
Buttermilk Fried Chicken
Watermelon salad with mirin and jalapenos, mashed sweet potatoes, honey infused with bourbon barrel smoked black pepper and sage.
"Could I have a side of hush puppies with that too?"
