Pairing Dinners in June

M’tucci’s chefs and managers have been working on a series of special dinners for June: a wine dinner at M’tucci’s Italian on June 9, a Tequila Dinner at M’tucci’s Moderno on June 16 and a Beer Dinner at M’tucci’s Twenty-Five on June 23. All dinners are $75 per person, begin at 6:30 and require a reservation.

Jackson Family Wine Dinner @ M’tucci’s Italian - Thursday June 9, 6:30pm

We have a long relationship with Jackson Family Wines, one of the most prominent wine families in the world. They started in the business in 1974 when their founder, the late Jess Jackson, bought an orchard in Lake County, California and planted Chardonnay grapes. From those early days they produced Kendall-Jackson Chardonnay which became the best-selling (and highly rated) Chardonnay in the U.S. With a strong belief in the value of terroir, the Jackson family acquired properties and only planted grapes that were suited to the land and climate.

We will feature their California wines with a five-course menu for $75 per person. Wines from Matanzas Creek, Santa Barbara, Anderson Valley and Knight’s Valley are included in the menu.

Make a reservation for this dinner by calling M’tucci’s Italian, 505-503-7327. Don’t wait, the last pairing dinner sold out in two days.


Tequila Dinner @ M’tucci’s Moderno - Thursday, June 16

Chefs gathered at M’tucci’s Moderno yesterday to taste the Blanco, Reposado and Añejo from 818 tequilas, along with the M’tucci’s Single Barrel, El Tesoro Reposado. Michael Trujillo from Southern Glazer Spirits led the tasting, offering expert insights into the farming and distillation processes for both labels.

Shawn, Cory & John sample the tequila from 818.


Steel Bender Beer @ M’tucci’s Twenty-Five - Thursday, June 23

The beer tasting was held with chefs and managers on Friday afternoon. The menu will be posted soon. The hardest part will be deciding which of the excellent beers and ales to feature.
