Franks Golden Wine Event

As a wine lover & foodie I can think of no better way to get away than a wine & food pairing and in that world there is no better pairing event than Franks Golden Wine Event.  With incredible food & over 150 wines you cannot find a better value. Add to that the idea that it benefits The Arts and Charity and the event is simply a no brainer. Drexelbrook Catering was fortunate enough to attend last year’s event and I will not miss one from here on in. Franks Wine is an amazing source of wine and spirits and is always staffed by professional, educated and helpful sales team that will find you the perfect wine.

BLACK is the new GOLD. Gone away is the stuffy, snooty, corporate "elegance" of the hotel (note the lower case "t" and "h"... Uncle Dupy lost the grandeur of upper case) ... HARRY'S (all caps!) is sleek, chic, trendy and hip!

After last year's fiasco we're headed back to "the other ballroom" in North Wilmington! With some proper planning Frank, Xavier, Chefs Patrick D'Amico and Leo Banks along with their talented culinary staff at Harry's Savoy Ballroom have orchestrated an evening of bold & explosive flavors to be married to the 150+ of in-your-face lip-smacking wines!

Live jazzy sounds and upbeat reggae will fill areas of the ballroom and tented patio... jamonit!! You'll be welcomed with bubbly poured from sliced bottles being sabered by Frank's Champagne sword... swooosh!! As in the past we'll once again focus on the marriage of wine to regional cuisine in 6 Food & Wine "pods" based on the top grape-growing regions and international cookery of the world... with one more ethnic entry: Germany - with their fine Riesling paired with Goudas, brats, schnitzels and other Bavarian delicacies!

Italian Cucina

French Bistro

South American Grill & Australian Barbi

Spanish Tapas

California & Pacific Northwest Cuisine

German Weinhaus

Within the Italian Cucina pod you'll enjoy foodstuffs like Bruschetta, Porcini Risotto, Calamari, Pesto Tortellini, cured meats, olives and cheeses, Tiramisu, Cannoli and Biscotti paired with Prosecco, Gavi, Barolo, Amarone, Brunello di Montalcino and Vin Santo.

Visit our French Bistro pod and your palate will experience creamy Triple Brie and Pate Maison, savory crepes complemented by Grand Cru Burgundy, Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Classified Growth Bordeaux, and Champagne. Our other 3 Food & Wine pods promise to be just as stimulating!

We're all about precisely fusing the wine in your glass to the morsel on your fork!

Get ready for absolute sensory overload with our Amarone & Asiago Arena and the Zin & Cocao Zone. Frank's got your palate covered from A to Z starting with Salty & Savory to the Sweet & Decadent!

Amarone paired with Italian Cheeses, Spreads, Salumi & Charcuterie..  Zinfandel paired with Chocolates & Caramels which will also be available for purchase by the box!

This year's KICKER is all the gems at Frank's Rare Wine Silent Auction to benefit The Delaware Theatre Company may be bid on and taken home the night of our event!

When you put it all together you can see that Frank's Golden Wine Event is going to be one KICK AZ! night... join us on Friday evening March 9th, 2012 from 6:30pm - 9:30pm!
