November Happenings at Knightor - What's New!

30/11/2017

 
December is just around the corner and gosh, it's been a busy month! We've harvested the last of the grapes from our vineyards, and already seen winter's frost creep in, but with a new Knightor aperitif almost ready for sale and preparations begun for our Christmas parties and weddings, we are full steam ahead for a sparkling December. 

On 24th November we had a Friday Feast themed around duck, a highly flavoursome and versatile ingredient that offers something a little more unique to your classic recipes. For those who aren't familiar with our Feast Nights, 1 or 2 Fridays a month we
showcase a special theme, particular ingredient, or highlight one of the many fantastic local producers we work with - to which this month's highlight was the Cornish Duck Company. 

Our lovely guests were welcomed into the bar and restaurant with a Knightor V&T (Vermouth and Tonic, as inspired by our celebratory news, more on this later!)

​MENU

Nibbles and cocktail 
Duck pastrami Reuben’s on rye
Duck bacon blt’s with avocado on brioche

Our next feast nights will be a Fish 'n' Fizz feast on Friday 22nd December and a Nordic & Scandi themed evening on Friday 29th December. For more information please see our Feast Nights Page

In addition to our Knightor Rose and Knightor White Vermouth, we are excited to tell you more about our new Knightor Dry blend, coming soon! Created with our special reserve wine and 24 botanicals, many of which are sourced in and around Knightor, our Dry Vermouth is distinctively fresh and aromatic. Like the Rose and White, the Dry is such a wonderfully complex drink that can be enjoyed on it's own, over ice, with a mixer, or in a cocktail - our personal favourite choice! 

Do check out this video featuring our consultant winemaker, Salvatore, as he tells you a few important things about our new Knightor Dry Vermouth and what makes it so special...he almost lets slip our top secret too! Yikes!
