November Recap: End of Harvest, Events and Recipes!

  3. November Recap: End of Harvest, Events and Recipes!

Settling further into the fourth quarter, we celebrated the end of our 2021 harvest with some of the most beautiful Cabernet Sauvignon Clone 169 we’ve had the opportunity to work with as well as the release of our 2019 Pinotage Reserve. The addition of this delightful fruit forward and formidable finishing wine to our lineup has been a great treat for crew and customers alike.

   Corks and Courses Menu

  

The Tasting Room spent part of the month hosting another round of exciting events with our Paint & Sip partners and another evening of Corks and Courses. Both gatherings have grown, and we’re proud to see everyone coming out to share these festivities with us. The remaining days of November gave us time to deck the halls and get into the holiday spirit. With December on the horizon, we’ll be offering a variety of gift ideas, baskets and stunning sips to our friends, family and neighbors for all their holiday season celebrations.

    

From our family to yours, here are some recipes that we hope you'll enjoy over the holiday season:

 

Apple Cashew Salad

  

Cashew Apple Salad  

Ingredients (Salad):
  • 2 packages (5 ounces each) spring mix salad greens
  • 2 large apples, coarsely chopped
  • 1 can (9-1/4 ounces) lightly salted cashews
  • 1 package (5 ounces) dried cranberries
  • 1/2 cup Feta cheese
  
Ingredients (Vinaigrette):
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup canola oil
  • 1/3 cup cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon ground mustard
  • 1 teaspoon salt
   

In a large bowl, combine the first five ingredients. In a small bowl, whisk vinaigrette ingredients until blended. Pour over salad and toss to coat; serve immediately.

   

Sausage Pear Stuffing

  

Sausage Pear Stuffing  

Ingredients:
  • Loaf day-old rustic bread, dark, hard crusts removed and bread cut into 1/2-inch cubes (about 12 cups)
  • 1 stick unsalted butter, cut into pieces, plus more for baking dish
  • 1 1/2 large onions, chopped (about 3 cups)
  • Small leeks, trimmed, thinly sliced into half-moons, and rinsed well (about 3 cups)
  • Stalks celery, chopped (about 1 1/4 cups)
  • 1 large fennel bulb, chopped (about 2 cups)
  • 12 to 14 ounces firm-ripe Bosc or Anjou pears (about 3), chopped (about 3 cups)
  • Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh sage leaves
  • 1 pound sweet Italian sausage, removed from casings
  • 2 cups Easy Turkey Stock
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 3/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
  

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spread bread cubes on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until crisped but not golden, about 10 minutes. Let cool. In a 14-inch straight-sided skillet (or 2 large skillets), melt butter over medium-high heat. Add onions, leeks, celery, fennel, and pears; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables and pears are softened and start to turn golden, about 15 minutes. Stir in rosemary and sage.

Meanwhile, cook sausage in a skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally and breaking into large crumbles, until browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Stir into vegetable mixture, then transfer to a large bowl. Add bread cubes and toss well. Drizzle stock over mixture, add eggs and parsley, and toss to combine well. Season with 2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Use 10 cups stuffing to fill bird; place remainder in a buttered 8-inch-square baking dish. After turkey is out of oven, bake at 350 degrees until heated through and top is browned, 40 to 45 minutes.
