Spring brings vibrant new ingredients to our menus, adding fresh flavors and a seasonal touch to every plate. Over the next two weeks, Chef Paul Gagne is rolling out exciting updates at The Fearrington House, and we’re especially in love with one of the latest additions to our four-course menu. When we asked Chef Gagne about his inspiration, he shared that he has been exploring more plant-based creations, embracing spices and flavors that bring brightness and depth to each dish.

NEW SEASONAL DISH

🥕 Baby Carrot with Chickpea & Raita
✨ Butter Sauce, Besan Crumb, Sumac

This beautifully composed dish balances rich, velvety textures with warm, aromatic spices, celebrating the season with a fresh and innovative twist.

Our wine director, Troy Revell, has been curating an exceptional selection at Galloway’s Wine Shop, and we’re excited to share that select bottles are now available for online purchase and pickup. Please note that wine only ships within North Carolina.

THIS WEEK’S FEATURED WINE

🍷 Barboursville ‘Reserve’ Cabernet Franc, Virginia 2022
“As much as any producer, Barboursville has played a pivotal role in
putting Virginia on the map as a wine region. Their wines
beautifully balance New World and Old World styles, and the
Cabernet Franc is a perfect example of that. Fresh notes of
blackberry, dried herbs, and cranberry shine upfront, while layers
of earth, compote, and a hint of licorice add depth and intrigue.
With a medium-bodied, versatile structure, this wine is as refined as
it is approachable.” Pick some up here.

Barboursville’s vineyards were designed in 1990 by winemaker Luca Paschina, who still leads the program today. We’re thrilled to welcome Luca for a special wine dinner on May 22nd—mark your calendar!”
Stop by Galloway’s Wine Shop to explore more hand-selected bottles or shop online for easy pickup. Cheers! 🍷
