Many Charlottesville Wine & Culinary Events are Held
at Picturesque and Interesting Wineries

Cooking Classes (see schedule below) - Winery kitchen cooking classes are scheduled regularly at First Colony Winery in the rolling hills of the Virginia Piedmont. Each class is designed to offer expertise with a different menu and set of cooking secrets that will lead you towards ever-greater confidence in home entertainment. These intimate participation style classes culminate with sitting down to our delicious lunch, paired with the delightful offerings of the winery’s cellar. The camaraderie is effusive as we converse with the vintner while enjoying his and our creations.

Special Events with a Class Motif provide an opportunity for the creation of an active, entertaining, and memorable occasion to celebrate your special event. Wedding Events - let the girls get away to have some fun (what the heck, bring along the boys, they may not admit it but they have fun cooking
too!); Corporate Team Building - seeing your coworkers (yes the bosses are included!) wearing aprons and up to their elbows in culinary creation (followed with great food and wine indulgence) can’t help but to raise the morale!; Parties Too Large for the Home - What a great way to enjoy a larger group of your friends!

The romance and mystique of a winery joined with the fun and excitement of great food and wine make for an activity that everyone will enjoy. It doesn’t get any better than this!

September 13 Sunday 11am-2pm  $65
BLT Salad / Creamy Basil Vinaigrette
Chicken Saltimbocca
Shitake Risotto 
Peach Blueberry Melba Cakes
 
A classic sandwich is presented as a first course salad and livened up with a drizzle of creamy basil vinaigrette.  Who doesn't love the garden fresh tomatoes at this time of year?  We'll wrap chicken with sage and prosciutto, pan fry it and serve with a creamy toothsome risotto flavored with shitake mushrooms from Terre's own garden.  The individual peach melba cakes will have you licking the plate and planning to make them as soon as you get home!
 
October 11 Sunday 11am-2pm  $65
Melon Arugula & Ham Salad / Paprika Dressing
Grilled Lobster Tails / Herb Lime Sauce
Gratin of Potatoes Dauphinois
"Baked" Brownies
 
The combination of sweet, sour, bitter, and salty flavors makes this easy to put together salad over the top satisfying.  Lobster with lime and a touch of char, need I say more!  And the tails are readily available and easy to work with.  Creamy potatoes with a golden cheese top will always be the first to go, they will definitely become part of your repertoire.  We'll finish with a brownie recipe from the New York  "Baked" Bakery.
