Texas has a wealth of cultural and culinary influences: the indigenous Mexican population, the predominantly German pioneers of the mid 1800’s, the Creole and Cajun influences of Southeast Texas, the cowboy cooks, the more recent influx of Asian and African migrants – all have made their mark in this great State. This seminar offers a chance to connect the dots by pairing these distinct cuisines with the wines of Texas.
