Join us for a five-course dinner on Monday, October 23, 2023, at 5:30pm prepared by Ambrosia’s Chef Evan Potoker and paired with wines from Browne Family Vineyards. The menu for our Fall Harvest Wine Dinner is inspired by the complex qualities of the wines and the bounty of the season.
Browne Family Vineyards was founded by noted wine entrepreneur Andrew Browne as a tribute to his family and to honor his late grandfather, mentor, veteran, and community stalwart, William Bitner Browne. Whether you are visiting one of Browne’s tasting rooms or opening a bottle in your own home, Andrew and his wife Courtney welcome you into their extended family where good friends, good food and wine, and good times are always on the agenda.
Skip Miller will represent the winery and Jesse Kennison will represent Southern Wines imports. They will be available to answer any questions pertaining to these wines.
