Last night Cha Bella hosted its first ever Wine Dinner. Cha Bella with Lambert Bridge presented an amazing five course menu of five star dishes accompanied by wines du jour. A cocktail hour preceeded the excitement filled dinner that started with a glass of 2007 Sauvignon Blanc (Dry Creek Valley), a Walker Farms celery and potato puree along with a Duck rillette and potato tuile, followed by 2006 Chardonnay (Sonoma County) with Maine Lobster gnocchi, baby Vidailia, grilled lettuce and an exquisite meyer lemon butter sauce.

The third course presented a 2007 Viognier (Sonoma County) accompanied by a local organic citrus salad with gorgonzola dolce and tangerine balsamic. The fourth course ushered in a 2005 Limited Selection Cabernet Sauvignon (Sonoma County) with North Carolina scallops, pastured pork belly, king trumpet mushrooms and roasted local carrots.
