Our wine pairings dinners are soaring in popularity and the February dinner sold out quickly, so reserve now to attend this month’s special event! Rich Hartenberger, owner and winemaker at Midnight Winery and Vineyard in Paso Robles, Calif., is coming back by popular demand for what promises to be one of the best pairings dinners of the year. He’ll be on hand with limited edition white and red wines to marry perfectly with five gourmet courses prepared by Mission Inn executive chef Billy Connolly, including wild mushroom, brie, and Midnight merlot soup, and striploin of bison topped with goat cheese butter.

The March 30 pairings dinner features a couple of extras: a complimentary amuse bouche course with a special wine taste and a discount offer on a choice wine Mr. Hartenberger has crafted. This elegant evening event is priced at $95 per person, plus tax and 21 percent gratuity. For reservations, call (352) 324-3930.
