Sommelier Smack-Down at Gordon's

What a blast the Sommelier Smack-Down was last night at Gordon's Wine in Waltham!  I saw two dear friends, Mike Meagher of Vineyard Road, and Kate Moore of L'Espalier, pitted toe-to-toe vying for reign as top sommelier of the night.  The challenge was to chose the best wines to compliment a surprise menu created by Adam Ostrofsky of Sel de la Terre, Boylston. The audience of tasters chose the victor voting on each course as to which pairing they liked better.  Ian Grossman, also of SDLT Boylston, served as master of ceremonies polling the crowd and keeping the event moving along as well as sous chef to Chef Adam.
