CHEF BROWN IS BACK!

"If food is the body of good living, wine is its soul". - Clifton Fadiman​

Join us as we bring the Chef and Winemaker series to your home.

Renowned Chef and author, Jerome “Rome” Brown and winemaker Phil Long have partnered to bring the ultimate virtual tasting experience to you.
 
Your ticket includes a recipe to follow along with chef Rome. Winemaker Phil Long will introduce you to his Pinot Blanc, which won "Best White Wine", "Best Wine Pairing", and 90 points from Wine Enthusiasts, and his Rhône blend, Deb-ru-vée, named this after his late wife, Debra; it’s short for Debra Cuvée. He will discuss the tasting notes, and what flavors to expect.

Chef Rome will take you step-by-step to prepare a meal he created specifically for these wines.

Winemaker/Founder Phil Long of Longevity Wines began his journey making wine in the garage with his wife Debra. Now with over a decade of winemaking experience, and a list of awards too long to print, Winemaker Phil continues his journey with the constant of always improving in place. “In the business of winemaking, the minute you think you know it all, it’s time to get out.” The cellar practices and techniques that Phil uses in the production of wine are constantly re-evaluated and improved to ultimately elevate the quality of the wines produced. The grapes are personally sourced and chosen by Phil. “Great wine starts with great fruit, there is no way around that.”  Grapes are sourced from only the best vineyards for use in the production of Longevity Wines. Phil began making wine in the Livermore Valley in 2006 under the Longevity label, using other facilities. It was only a matter of time before production was moved from other facilities, to Longevity’s own facility in Livermore. Longevity produces 3000 under his Black label, and well over 10,000 cases of his white label. Phil enjoys the challenge of making many different wines and continues to strive for wines that are high in quality.

Celebrity chef, Army veteran, and health correspondent Jerome Brown celebrates his Southern roots with his new cookbook Carolina Soul: The Down Home Taste of the Carolinas. In the book, the Personal Chef to the Stars showcases a compilation of family recipes, client favorites and low-calorie meals indigenous to North and South Carolina. “I put everything I could into this book, and I did it with love,” said Chef Rome, who has cooked for athletes and celebrities such as Shaquille O’Neal, Colin Powell, Byron Cage and Cam Newton. The former Food Network Star and featured Epcot International Food & Wine Festival chef prides himself on putting a healthy spin on Southern cuisine, helping many of his clients, like former NBA great Shaquille O’Neil, lose weight. Like his bestselling cookbook, Eat Like a Celebrity: Southern Cuisine with a Gourmet Twist, Chef Rome included stories of his family and the influence that Carolina has had on his life and on the country. Chef Rome ranked #8 in the world, and we are excited to bring him to your kitchen.
