Over the past few weeks El Gaucho Argentine Grill has had the pleasure of serving a special dinner menu under the slogan ”Grab Life by the Grapes.”
It is a collaborative effort with the Arion Wine Company, presenting a delightful menu, perfectly paired with Catena wines, Malbec & Chardonnay. The menu is still available at the restaurant until Christmas for $45.- per person including award-winning wines and delicious food.
The menu was introduced during a dinner party, hosted by Elina Luco Alduncin, who was visiting Aruba as the representative of Bodega Catena Zapata winery in Argentina. She helped put together the menu which has been selling to rave reviews ever since, including Shrimp Scampi as an appetizer paired with Bodega Catena Zapata Chardonnay Mendoza 2009, a perfectly grilled Rack of Lamb for main course paired with Bodega Catena Zapata Malbec Mendoza 2009, and a signature El Gaucho dessert, Creme Brulee chased by Alamos Torrontes Salta Provinces 2010.
All wines served with dinner rated high by Robert Parker and Wine Spectator Magazine.
You too can make a reservation and try the special menu while it lasts! Pictured here Marilfi Velasquez, a charming waitress at the restaurant whose guests report dinner was spectacular! Marilfi had just won a bottle of Catena Malbec — 91 points Wine spectator and #58 in the Wine Spectator top 100 — as she has been selling a record number of specials.
