Stephen - I sent you a PM.

Fruit flavored in every course except dessert. Looks interesting though.

It's almost as if it were planned that way, purposely. A chef, sitting in his office, staring at the flavor wheel and recalling the tasting session. Then considering how best to play with the characteristics of each wine.

If you notice, the wines are featured and the food is second mentioned. This was not by accident.
