2021 Old Manila wine dinner series continues

THE 2021 OLD Manila Wine Dinner Series continues, featuring a five-course degustation menu, created by Old Manila Chef de Cuisine Allan Briones, paired with wines from Spottswoode Estate Vineyard & Winery. The wine dinner is set for July 20, 6:30 p.m., at The Peninsula Manila’s signature fine dining restaurant Old Manila. Price per person is P12,000, inclusive of taxes. This is the second time this year that Mr. Briones is collaborating with an award-winning vineyard and winery, and creating a dinner around the wine. During the five-course dinner, select fine wines and Champagnes will be paired with each course. Guests will also have the opportunity to “meet” Spottwoode Estate President and CEO Beth Novak Milliken who will be streaming live from Napa Valley, as well as Mr. Briones and his team and ask questions about the wines and dishes they will be enjoying. The menu includes dishes such as a Goats Cheese and Crab Tart which uses artisanal goats cheese crafted in Butuan and crabs harvested from the waters off Sulu. Also on the menu are a Primavera Truffle Risotto, Mediterranean Dry-aged Lamb Burger on a Rosemary Brioche, Wagyu Parmentier with Potato Textures, and Dark Chocolate and Orange Crémeux. Pre-paid reservations are required for the dinner as there is very limited seating.
