The vineyard is located at Penna – 30 minutes drive from the city of Hobart in southern Tasmania (Australia). Critical climate indicators such as rainfall, temperature, sunshine hours, number of rain days and humidity combine at Frogmore Creek, making it a premium quality wine area. Southern Tasmania’s cool climate produces wines more like those of Europe than mainland Australia – internationally acclaimed reds and whites of exceptional quality. Frogmore Creek aims to create a biologically diverse environment for the vines and nature’s creatures. By utilizing safe farming methods the waterways will be a safe place for frogs, fish and birds. Since the first vines were planted and the dams established, three species of frogs have made the vineyard their home. The vineyard is also home to a number of native hens.About SIMPLY FONDUE Simply Fondue combines state-of-the art cooking with ambrosial cheeses and a variety of savory seasoned bouillon broths for dipping a wide array of entrées such as fresh beef, lobster, shrimp, pork, poultry, tofu and gourmet vegetables. If you have a sweet tooth, you will most certainly enjoy Simply Fondue’s delicious selection of specialty chocolate fondues. Round out the evening with a glass of wine from our award-winning wine list or try one of our popular, creative martinis.Open for dinner daily.Simply Fondue has two Orange County locations: 28719 Los Alisos Blvd., Mission Viejo (949) 707-5200 and31761 Camino Capistrano, San Juan Capistrano (949) 240-0300.www.simplyfondueorangecounty.com.

Oregon truffles will be celebrated nationally by the renowned Blackberry Farm during a culinary event Feb. 5 through Feb. 7.Leslie Scott and Charles Lefevre of the Oregon Truffle Festival and New World Truffieres will join Executive Chef Rocky Maselli of Marché Restaurant in Eugene, Ore., as Ambassadeurs de truffe, bringing their beloved ingredient to the American Southland.This event will follow the anticipated success of the Fifth Annual Oregon Truffle Festival Jan. 29 through Jan. 31.The convergence of the Pacific Northwest and the American South will inspire a heavenly melding of cuisines and philosophies that champion the seasonal and the farm-raised. “The chefs and artisanal food producers who have gathered at the Farm are not cooking from recipes or trends. Rather, they are studying what the land offers each day with one thing in mind: to help the food be what it wants to be and to use that essence to create a dish that expresses a particular place on a particular day,” says Chef Sam Beall of Blackberry Farm.This responsive way of treating ingredients has earned Blackberry Farm recognition as a leader in gastronomic excellence from such culinary and hospitality organizations as Relais and Chateaux, Relais Gourmand, Gourmet magazine, and Zagat.The Farm’s achievement in connecting culinary experiences with social value is what links it with the truffle supporters of Oregon. Leslie Scott, managing partner of the Oregon Truffle Festival, makes it her mission to link the beauty of Oregon’s bounty with the social aspects of rich experiences, relationships and lasting memories. Her commitment to authenticity and conviviality create an atmosphere where far more than food is being shared.“There is nothing more authentic than fresh, seasonal food being enjoyed by all kinds of people around the table. We want our guests to understand not just the connection of farm-to-table but how those connections and relationships create culture and build community. That Oregon has such fantastic native culinary truffles to warm us during the winter months gives us something to look forward to celebrating every year,” says Scott.The weekend will showcase the celebrated fungi through a mélange of educational events and experiences led by mycologist Charles Lefevre – whose truffle trees are planted at Blackberry Farm – and Blackberry Farm’s truffle dogs and their trainer, Jim Sanford. Saturday culminates in a truffle dinner with an exceptional menu prepared by Rocky Maselli and chefs from Blackberry Farm, paired with outstanding wines from Oregon winemaker Josh Bergstrom of Bergstrom Wines.The Blackberry Farm event is sure to represent a leap in culinary prestige for Oregon and its New World Truffles since it follows the internationally recognized Oregon Truffle Festival and places them prominently on the national stage of gastronomic eminence. It will be a benchmark sure to hasten the fruition of Oregon and North America’s emerging truffle industry.
