Saturday
took
Fat
Man
Reviews
to
Jean
Farris
Winery
&
Bistro.
Jean
Farris
is
a
small
winery
that
offers
farm
to
table
food.
We
started
with
two
flights
of
wine
to
sample
the
different
types
of
wines
made
on
site.
We
tried
the
classic
reds
and
the
Sweet
wine
tastings.
I
especially
liked
the
Red
Head.
It
is
a
sweet
wine
aged
in
bourbon
barrels.
It
reminds
me
of
a
port.
I
tried
their
Old
Fashioned,
made
with
Fosters
bourbon.
Personally,
I
would
have
liked
a
touch
more
sweetness
and
a
little
less
bitters,
but
it
was
a
good
drink.
We
decided
on
the
Butcher's
Board
to
start
out.
It
had
local
cheddar,
pepper
jack
and
honey
chèvre
goat
cheese,
candied
pecans,
roadhouse
almonds,
homemade
pickles,
date
and
currant
chutney,
stone
ground
mustard,
a
smoked
pork
and
an
apple
and
pear
chicken
sausage
and
homemade
crackers.
This
was
excellent,
and
we
would
go
back
just
for
this
again.
The
honey
cheese
was
sweet
and
refreshing,
the
sausage
was
tender
with
a
good
snap
from
the
casing.
One
knock
was
one
of
the
crackers
was
mealy
in
texture.
I
also
tried
the
drink
Between
the
Sheets,
made
with
Fosters
bourbon.
It
tasted
sweet
and
tangy,
a
bit
like
lemonade
with
bourbon.
A
very
enjoyable
drink.
For
my
entrée
I
had
the
Duck
Breast,
whipped
potatoes,
blanched
green
beans
and
a
sweet
and
spicy
chutney.
The
duck
was
cooked
to
perfection,
tender
and
juicy,
but
it
was
heavy-handed
with
the
salt.
The
potatoes
were
great
with
melted
Asiago
cheese
on
top,
but
could
have
used
a
touch
of
pepper.
The
green
beans
were
cooked
and
seasoned
well.
The
chutney
was
delicious,
but
I
needed
more
to
help
cut
through
the
saltiness
of
the
duck
breast.
My
fiancé
tried
the
Lamb.
It
was
cooked
to
a
great
medium
rare,
but
was
a
little
salty
as
well.
The
mushroom
risotto
was
a
bit
over
done
and
slightly
dry,
but
it
was
seasoned
well
and
had
a
good
mushroom
flavor.
This
was
also
served
with
beans.
Jean
Farris
Winery
&
Bistro
offers
several
dishes,
wine
pairings,
cheeses
as
well
as
vegan
or
vegetarian
options.
The
service
was
fantastic
with
several
recommendations
and
good
knowledge
of
the
menu.

Farris
Winery
&
Bistro
is
Fat
Man
