Massive Wine Dinner At Keith Young's

Now that Keith Young has a new wine cellar and adjacent banquet room, he's begun using them for wine dinners. These are good for any restaurant, because it makes the kitchen stretch a little and gives the more ambitious cooks a reason to live. And, of course, we get a great special occasion in the deal.

The next one coming up is an evening of Keith's food and the wines of Glazer Companies. All of these wines are unusual in one way or another, although they have nothing else in common. The wines will be available for retail sale at the dinner. The price is $80, plus tax and tip--so, about $105. Here's the menu:

Canape of Smoked Salmon
Lemon Tarragon Vinaigrette
Wine: Heidsieck Monopole Blue Top

Bacon Wrapped Sea Scallops
Beurre Blanc
Wine: Wente Chardonnay Riva Ranch

Fresh Spring Greens
Balsamic Vinaigrette, Crumbled Blue Cheese
Wine: Turnbull Sauvignon Blanc

Pan-Seared Duck Breast
Dark Cherry Glaze, Sauteed Spinach
Wine: Gloria Ferrer Pinot Noir

Grilled Aged Filet of Beef
Blackberry Compote, Rosemary Scalloped Potatoes
Wine: Earthquake Zinfandel

Chocolate Pot de Creme
Nocello Raisins
Wine: Cockburn Port Special Reserve
