Now this is how to throw a winemaker dinner. And this how to make wine. Last night in the Mission at 18 Reasons, Dirty and Rowdy held their annual chicken dinner, and what a playful and irreverent evening it was. It started with a (very) welcome glass of sparkling which was paired with a retro-cool pimento spread and pecans. Wedge salad. And the mourvèdre. Paired with crisp fried chicken with collard greens, smoky beans and cornbread, it’s elevated comfort food. Here’s a few images of the dinner. The takeaway for everyone? Play with your food and have fun with your wine pairings.
