Food and Wine Pairing with Acquiesce Wines + Gift Package
Please join me, Susan Tipton, winemaker of Acquiesce Winery and Susan Manfull, Editor of Provence WineZine, for our second virtual cooking, wine pairing, and wine education class.
Bonus Wine Gift Package
Perfectly Provence has partnered with Acquiesce Winery on a wine gift package for this event – Cook, Drink, & Learn 2.
To enter the contest, leave a comment below this post before January 30th at 18:00 (Pacific time). The winner will be selected via a random draw from eligible names and enjoy a gift package, including:
2018 Sparkling Grenache Blanc
2019 Grenache Blanc
2019 Grenache Rosé
When?
Saturday, February 6th at 1:00 PM (PST), 4:oo PM (EST).
I will begin with a cooking demonstration of Feuilletés aux Champignons Sauvages (velvety mushrooms sautéed in tarragon and cream, nestled in puff pastry). Following that, I will share the secret behind making a traditional French cheese souflée and a tempting Angel Food Cake.
Sue Tipton will be tasting through three of her award-winning Grenache wines. Editor Susan Manfull will provide historical and pertinent information regarding the Grenache varietals and how they are interpreted at Acquiesce, along with posing questions and taking some of yours. I have now tasted and paired all three wines, and you will receive three recipe cards – one to go with each wine.

Thanks, David, I look forward to your cooking demonstration the recipes sound delicious.
David, Susan and Susan – what a fantastic collaboration of three great minds! I love the recipes especially the Feuilletes aux Champignons Sauvages! Combining cooking, wine pairing and wine education as a virtual class is a great way for all of us to stay connected and to travel virtually. Well done.
Thank you Tasha!
Sounds divine! As a child I always looked forward to my birthday cake of choice- angel food cake… can’t wait to see your version.
Hello and thank you for your comment, your name has been entered in the draw. Good luck! And, David makes a fabulous angel food cake.
I am totally in for the class. I started out as a classically trained pastry chef leaning all of the french pastries which is the base for all baking in my mind and the same goes for cooking. I learned the French classics which gave me my cooking skills of today, but I have not done any classic French cooking in MANY years so I look forward to taking more classes. I have followed some of Tasha Powell’s wonderful French cooking classes and ready to keep going and learn more!
Thank you for this opportunity!

Wow.. these wines look absolutely fabulous. I think I would want to try the Grenache Sparkling wine and also the Grenache Rose!
Both sound fabulous.
What’s amusing is that I recently had a Grenache Blanc.. from a different California winery!
