Rough & Ready, CA, December 2, 2010 - One of the wine and food world’s most decadently delicious events will take place on Thursday, January 27th at Fort Mason Center in San Francisco----Good Eats & Zinfandel Pairing. From 6- 9 p.m., participants will enjoy elaborately paired combinations of Zinfandels and memorable foods. Fifty Zinfandel wineries will team up with 50 top restaurant chefs to present Zins which marry happily with everything from lamb chops to dark chocolate PB&J truffles. And for the first time ever, participating chefs are revealing their recipes to the public!

 

Good Eats & Zin kicks off the 20th Anniversary Annual ZAP Festival, January 27-29 in San Francisco, sponsored by Zinfandel Advocates and Producers (ZAP), a 501(c)(3) educational nonprofit.

 

Known as the ultimate food wine, Zinfandel differentiates itself with approachable yet unmistakable lively flavors. These particular recipes have been chosen by the chefs and wineries to perfectly complement the Zinfandels and foods.

 

“Good Eats is the perfect way to learn more about the way Zinfandel adapts to different foods and palates, and to discover your favorites among the best Zins offered by our member wineries,” said Rebecca Robinson, Exec Director of ZAP.

 

This is definitely the most discussed ZAP Festival wine event, and not to be missed by wine aficionados and foodies who appreciate the nuances of wine and food pairing. Tickets can be purchased at www.zinfandel.org and cost $140/person for the public and $100 for members of ZAP. Also on the website you can join ZAP for $44 a year to be a member.
