Throwing a Spooky Soiree is as easy as trick or treating and just as fun! This year, instead of my typical Harvest themed party, with pumpkin soup and raisin bread, I will be kicking it up a notch and going all out scary! Over the course of this week I’ll be highlighting a frighteningly fun menu that will leave your guests drooling for more. Let the party begin…
First Course: Witches Brew paired with our 2010 Pinot Grigio

Don’t fly away on your broomstick just yet, stay tuned for the next recipe: Brains and Blood Meatballs.
