Yesterday marked the first 1886 Wine Experience of the season at Dr. Frank's, and we were honored to once again partner with the winery to help tell the story of the vineyards through food. This month’s theme, Awakening, inspired a pairing plate built around the fragile, vibrant energy of spring — spinach, peas, arugula, and other fresh green elements echo the vineyard’s earliest moments of renewal.
These menus are some of our favorite creative projects each year. Every bite is thoughtfully designed to reflect the season, the wines, and the experience as a whole. Huge thanks to the winery team for inviting us to be part of this award-winning experience again this season.
Reservations are now open, and this Awakening menu will only be here through the end of June before a new theme arrives in July. We can’t wait to share this season with you. Learn more about this experience at https://www.drfrankwines.com/finger-lakes-winery-tasting/1886-wine-experience/
