Win Tickets. Drink Zin. Rosenblum Wine Dinner at the Crowne-Plaza Boston Natick


Maybe you think Rosenblum Cellars is all about the Zinfandel.

You wouldn't be wrong, exactly. But we think Rosenblum's a lot more about the story.

As in, going from home winemaker to urban winery to award-winning, highly-rated wines.

As in, going from practicing veterinarian to leading producer of Zinfandel and Rhône-varietal wines.

As in, a winemaker -- and his wines -- with a whole lot of
perspective.

Next Friday night, Rosenblum brings that perspective to the
Crowne-Plaza Boston Natick for a very special wine dinner.

The wines?

2006 Rosenblum Cellars, Contra Costa County Zinfandel
2006 Rosenblum Cellars, Paso Robles Zinfandel Richard Sauret Vineyards
Rosenblum Cellars, Desiree Chocolate Flavored Dessert Wine

The food?

Appetizers include Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto Seared U-8 Scallop and Baked Polenta Socal with Contra Costa Zinfandel Tri-Colored Pepper Sauce
Entrée: Juniper Berry, Apple Cider Soaked Pan-Seared Venison Saddle
Dessert: Fudge Cake Stack

Your opportunity to partake?

Tickets are only $45 a person (excluding tax and gratuity), which makes it a great idea for an after-work gathering or an early date.

You can win your way in as well!
Send us 100 words or less about the life experience that makes your own perspective something special. It could win you two free seats at Rosenblum's table.

Contest starts now until 5 p.m. on Tuesday, January 19. Winner only will be notified by 7 a.m. on Wednesday.

Because, whether you're a Zinfandel winemaker or a Bostonian with a story, a little perspective goes a very long way.
