Chateau St. Jean

A beautiful winery in nearby Kenwood - recommended to us by our innkeeper. We finished our purchases here and then had a picnic lunch in the walled gardens, glass of wine in hand on a perfect day. Dinner that evening was at Kenwood Restaurant on the patio (a recommendation from the tasting room attendant at the winery). Wally - as usual - trumped me by ordering roasted duck breast with orange ginger sauce and assorted veggies, while I made due with a strip steak covered in herb butter with asparagus. Dessert was flourless chocolate torte with raspberry coulis, the best either of us has had. We regretted skipping the salads earlier, but it was a nice change to head home pleasantly full instead of achingly stuffed.
