Beyond the Glass Crow & Chef Collaborations


Walter Staib "Taste of History" broadcast at Crow Vineyard & Winery

At Crow Vineyard & Winery the presentation of food and wine pairing events is specially crafted to bring a multi-dimensional experience to their guests. Over the years the Crows have developed on-going relationships with a small handful of niche Chefs to showcase their talents.

It all started some 15 years ago when the Crows were carefully planning their diversification from farm to vineyard and winery. Judy Crow brought in young chef Robbie Jester to create small and intimate cooking demos using local foods in order to present their wine making model. The relationship still continues to this day – Jester, now a nationally acclaimed Chef, often returns to his roots at Crow to create a number of cuisine experience events showcasing his earthy robust cuisine and the wines of Crow. Jester says these Crow events are set apart from other pairing events due to the highly personal hospitality extended to guests and the face to face education they receive about local food sourcing and the wines made from grapes right at the Crow vineyard.

Another local Chef who has set a platform at Crow is Paul McCormick. A jack of many trades and cuisine experiences, Paul brings in his special truck to create on the spot Wood-fired pizzas and as well creates special dinners featuring Crow Grass-fed beef. It was McCormick who introduced the Crows to Chef Walter Staib. Staib who has carved out notoriety with his “A Taste of History” series of historical, geographically centric, educational cuisine broadcasts, fell in love with the authentic farm culture at Crow Vineyard & Winery with his first visit. One thing led to the next and “A Taste of History” (Season 12 | Episode 8) Maryland Wine broadcast episode https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=116G1miP5uU was produced at Crow featuring a wine-pairing menu with recipes that included an oyster salad with Crow Vidal Blanc and oxtail stew with Crow Merlot.

With all of these collaborations the Chefs have experienced a wonderful unique platform at Crow bringing them in direct connection with wines created from grapes right in the vineyard farm, on premise grass-fed beef and a loyal and inquisitive group of Crow wine aficionados.
