Wine Dinner: Krupp Brothers

  • No Thyme to Cook 14624 Solomons Island Road South Solomons, MD, 20688 United States (map)

Krupp Brothers winery is the dream of two brothers who nurtured a passion for wine over decades. After setting down roots in the San Francisco Bay Area, Jan - an internist with a private medical practice - pursued his winemaking as a hobby for 15 years. While continuing to commute to his medical practice, Jan moved to Napa in 1991 and began to tend grapes – first planting a vineyard surrounding his family's house and then with the help of Bart, he would develop what would become one of Napa's most iconic vineyards, Stagecoach.

In 1999, Jan and Bart founded Krupp Brothers, producing their first vintage: An extraordinary Cabernet Sauvignon.  Our wines begin at the source – fruit from select blocks that have been carefully chosen by Jan. Today, each wine in our collection – from our mountain Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignons to our Rhone-style Syrah and Tempranillo-based red – embody the vision and passion that has guided the two brothers. We invite you to try them.

MENU AND WINE PAIRINGS

Cream of Crab & Leek Soup paired with 2019 Krupp Brothers Chardonnay

This Chardonnay is an inviting mélange of tangy citrus and tropical notes interlaced with a subtle creamy sweetness. Lemon, pineapple and brown sugar leap from the glass. Flavors of refreshing grapefruit and vanilla followed by a long finish rounded by plush sweet barrel tannins delight the palate.

 

Locally Sourced Charcuterie Course paired with Krupp Brothers The Damsel Rosé Napa Valley

This wine’s vivid coral color dazzles the eye while aromas of bright cherry and kiwi strawberry with hints of orange peel and cake batter lift from the glass. The palate is crisp and layered with flavors of strawberry pie, clove, and mixed wild berry interlaced with a vibrant acidity.

 

Coffee Crusted Grilled Beef with a Cherry Sauce, Whipped Parsnips & Potatoes and Sugar Snap Peas paired with 2019 The Doctor

Fresh cherries top a deep and concentrated nose layered with cardamom, California bay leaf, warm cinnamon and white pepper. Juicy ripe plum, cocoa nibs and espresso are carried by elegant tannins, with undercurrents of sour cherry adding to the palate’s brightness.

Bumbleberry Pie paired with Black Bart Syrah Port

Opens with heady aromas of black cherry, rose petals and dried plums. A lush mouthfeel with flavors of dark chocolate, rose cordial and tangy boysenberry lead to a long finish. Pair with dark chocolate brownies or boysenberry pie. Drink now through 2035.
