Costera Fall Wine Dinner Series Kicks Off October 10th

Costera, the Coastal Mediterranean Uptown restaurant and bar by Chef Brian Burns and Reno De Ranieri, is pleased to announce its Fall Wine Dinner Series. Showcasing a different region of the Iberian Peninsula each month from October through December, the decadent three-course pairing dinners are certain to tantalize the palates of oenophiles and foodies alike. The series will kick off on Thursday, October 10th, showcasing the wines of Parés Balta – a third-generation organic and biodynamic family-owned winery in Penedes, Spain.  

With only 20 seats available, the intimate and exclusive dinner, crafted by Chef de Cuisine Kathryn Searcy (click for our interview with Kathryn), will feature perfectly prepared dishes alongside beautiful wines curated by General Manager Steve Groom. The family-style tasting will feature an array of specialty plates not found on the Costera menu, as well as some signature classics. Priced at $125 per person (includes tax and gratuity), the menu will be:

First Course
Jamon Iberico, Pan Con Tomate, Scallop Crudo
