With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, it pays to make plans ahead of time. Restaurants are inviting patrons with arms widened to host you for this wedding for lovers. Although Valentine’s Day is on Monday, please consider to visit your favorite dining establishments.
Honor Café in historical downtown Conroe will be hosting a special dinner on Sunday evening. Yes, they do serve Texas red wines. Another alternative is to plan a weekend occasion to visit a winery or a number of wineries. Bernhardt Winery is hosting special tastings with foods this weekend. B. E. Winery at 400 Bryant Roadway is hosting a Wine maker’s Valentine’s Dinner on Saturday night. Delight in a Saturday evening or Sunday twelve noon meal ignoring the vineyards at Messina Hof Winery in Bryan at their Vintage Home Restaurant. Perhaps invest a night at their Villa Bed and Breakfast on the winery grounds. One really important thing to bear in mind is the extremely essential task of making a booking given that these locations are sure to fill.
Make a long weekend of it from Friday through Sunday in Fredericksburg or Kerrville while having the opportunity to go to several of the practically 100 wineries because place and dining at the Cabernet Grill in Fredericksburg with a substantial white wine menu of just Texas wines. You can easily see why WINE viewer provided the Cabernet Grill high marks. Do some checking out with your love in the Texas Hill Nation named consistently as one of the Top 5 white wine destinations in the USA. Make plans to remain at one of the local Hill Nation Bed and Breakfasts by getting your reservation in now. Make the journey a prepared excursion with stops along the way and not hurrying things since the trip should be concentrated on that “essential individual in your life. I suggest bringing home red wines that you would not generally encounter at your local white wine store.
I am planning numerous quiet, at-home occasions matching it with Texas wines that we both delight in. Possibly, we will resurrect that legendary of fans called “Love Story” which sipping on a Llano Estacado Chardonnay or Brennan Viognier or Kerrville Hills Semillon. If the weather is nice on Monday, I plan to barbecue some steaks outside along with packed baked potatoes and a crisp green salad with dining outside on the back terrace sipping on some Bending Branch Tannat or Becker Cabernet Sauvignon-Syrah Blend or Messina Hof Cabernet Franc. Dessert has to be chocolate with either Fall Creek Meritus or Kiepersol Barrel 33.
Whatever your event, it does pay to plan ahead. The most important ingredient for this little soiree need to be the most crucial person in your life. Even better, make this celebration of LOVE an everyday event in your house. Isn’t that the way that love should be? An event on each of the 364 days of the year? Have a fantastic day, making it even better with a bottle of Texas red wine.
