Please The Palate Pick of the Week: A Curated 5-Course Pairing Menu with LXV Wines in Paso Robles
Please The Palate
I immediately said yes when I received a personal invitation to have lunch with Neeta and Kunal Mittal at LXV Wines in Paso Robles. Not only was it an opportunity to visit their estate vineyard in the Willow Creek District and taste the new releases of LXV Mesos Wines, but it was also an opportunity to enjoy the wines paired with a menu curated by Neeta Kunal and Chef Matthew Roberts. If there is anyone who loves to create food and wine pairings, it is Neeta. That is why a Curated 5-Course Pairing Menu with LXV Wines in Paso Robles is the Please The Palate pick of the week.
A premier Cabernet Sauvignon/Bordeaux house, LXV Wine is owned by Neeta and Kunal Mittal. Neeta and Kunal are known for their wine tasting and flavor-pairing experiences. Born in India, Neeta’s father came from the spice capital of the world and Neeta’s mother loved experimenting with flavors, both of which influenced Neeta’s life. This is reflected in the flavors and spices that are showcased in the food and wine pairing lunches and dinners they do, as well as the deconstructed spice pairings they offer in their tasting room. As Neeta explained, “I am always seeking epic creativity in the interaction of food and wine – be it visuals, flavors, textures, or interpretation.”
