'Twas a Month Before Christmas

’Twas a Month Before Christmas

SEATTLE, Wash.—(November 23, 2009) ’Twas a month before Christmas, when all through the Sound, the people were stirring to see what was around. The businesses were gathering holiday offerings with care, in hopes that the shoppers soon would be there…


The busy, tired cooks had no time to even think,
The table needs setting, but what to eat and drink?

When what to their wondering eyes did they see?
Classes, recipes and tips from restaurants and wineries…


Tini Bigs Shakes up Saint Nick’s Jolly Tini
www.tinibigs.com
Don’t tell Mrs. Claus! Santa’s found his favorite martini just in time for the holidays and the tini’s green color—made from vodka infused with apple Jolly Ranchers—goes great against his red suit. Enjoy the Jolly Tini at Seattle’s martini mecca, Tini Bigs, or make the “sucker” at home, just before the relatives arrive.

Jolly Tini Recipe
Ingredients:
4 ounces Finlandia vodka infused with apple-flavored Jolly Ranchers*
¾ ounce fresh sweet-and-sour mix
1 maraschino cherry for garnish

*To infuse vodka, place 18 Jolly Ranchers in a 750-ml bottle of vodka. Let stand until the candies dissolve, about 24 hours, rotating the bottle 2 to 3 times.

Directions:
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add infused vodka and sweet-and-sour mix. Stir vigorously and strain into a big martini glass.

The 2007 Matchless Red Wine ($23) is 70 percent merlot and 30 percent cabernet sauvignon. Starting with light cedar notes, black pepper and bing cherry on the nose, the dark fruit components of the wine brighten to raspberry and rhubarb pie with a long finish.

Festive Favorites from Waters Winery and Substance Wines
www.waterswinery.com
Impress guests with a wine perfectly paired for the meal. Jamie Brown, winemaker of award-winning Waters Winery and Substance Wines, offers up these seasonal wine recommendations for any table:

“Super food friendly wine”
2007 Cf - Substance Columbia Valley Cabernet Franc
($20)
With a perfumed nose of black fruit, rosemary and thyme, this wine is crisp and earthy with a potpourri of herbs. It shows a firm acidity, moderate alcohol and a diuturnal length.

“For the homerun, more than 3 year’s old and showing fantastic”
Waters 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon ($50)
Made primarily from the stout 35-year old vines of Cold Creek Vineyard in Yakima Valley, this single varietal cabernet is a dark ruby color with a classic Bordeaux profile of tobacco, leather, must, truffles, pencil shavings, spices and herbs, and well-integrated hints of smoky, toasty oak.

It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year with Olsen Estates Wine
www.olsenestates.com Twitter: @OlsenEstates Facebook
The holiday season is all about spending time with loved ones. Share and create special memories while drinking a bottle of wine from a winery that knows the importance of family. Olsen Estates is a family-owned and operated, all estate-grown winery. The Olsen family settled on ten acres in the Yakima River Valley in 1908 and has had a strong farming presence in the valley for more than 100 years.

Having won gold in the 2009 Seattle Wine Awards and received 92 points in Wine Advocate, the 2007 Olsen Estates Petit Verdot is a welcome addition to the holiday table. Black cherry, tobacco and chocolate surround a core of blackberry and cassis with a long luscious finish. The wine ($37) can be purchased
online.
