The Spring 2012 Wine Dinner at the Jefferson. March 8: Meat Lovers’ Paradise with Blackbird Vineyards – Wine Cellar [$185 per person] With a winter chill still in the air, the inaugural dinner of the 2012
series is a celebration of [mostly] red meats and the big red wines
that bring out their best. Blackbird Vineyards, a quiet Napa Valley
label fast gaining big critical recognition, is the ideal partner for
the whole meaty meal: the word ‘merlot’ is, in fact, French patois for
‘little blackbird,’ and the terroir-driven, Pomerol-inspired blends
produced by Blackbird focus solely on varieties of Merlot, Cabernet
Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon. The menu begins with Gougères Stuffed with Poached Veal Breast, Béchamel, and Black Truffle
paired with 2011 Blackbird Vineyards Arriviste Rosé. Progressing
through five more savory courses from Short Rib Ravioli to Roast Loin of
Venison, the meat doesn’t stop at dessert: a Black Truffle Pain Perdue with Smoked Bacon Ice Cream and Marmalade of Red Fruits – served with Blackbird’s 2009 Contrarian Red Wine.

Jeff and Barbara Black, Chef/Owners of Black Restaurant Group and the newly
opened Pearl Dive Oyster Palace and Black Jack restaurants, are pleased to host
a pre-release party for Port City Brewing Company’s Revival Stout. On
Saturday, March 17th from 2 PM to 4 PM, Bill Butcher, Owner of Port City Brewing
Company, and Brad Blymier, Co-Owner of War Shore Oyster Company, will be at
Black Jack to debut their special edition beer that was specially created to
have an affinity for oysters and seafood. Crafted by Head Brewer Jonathan
Reeves, this beer was made by steeping War Shore’s Chesapeake Bay oyster shells
in the brewing water to enhance mineral content, and then adding the oysters and
their liquor to the brew during the boil. The oysters add a subtle briny
character, and a smooth textural element to the beer.
