Partake is a new event series at Middendorf's Slidell featuring delectable food and libations.  The next event coming up is a Wine Tasting Dinner on Wednesday, May 3, 2023 at 6:30pm.

We have invited Lorraine Streckfus with Constellation Brands to join us for the evening.  She will showcase a fine selection of wines from The Prisoner Wine Company, one of the iconic premium brands from Constellation's portfolio.

The Prisoner Wine Company, based in Napa Valley, California, features rule-bending blends with provocative label designs.  They're recognized by fans and wine critics alike as one of the most bold and innovative wine brands in the market, leading the resurgence of California luxury red blends and earning cult wine status.  The company prides itself on pushing the boundaries of winemaking.

Each wine has been carefully selected to compliment a four course gourmet meal prepared by European Master Chef Horst Pfeifer, current owner of Middendorf's Seafood Restaurant and former owner of Bella Luna, a fine dining restaurant in the French Quarter.  Chef Pfeifer has the skills and the passion to craft a truly memorable meal.
