His degree is in Culinary Arts from Johnson & Wales Culinary Institute in Providence, RI with extensive experience as a personal chef on Nantucket and at acclaimed restaurants in New England and the eastern seaboard.

Each event will feature three to four wines presented with food pairings.  Miskew will discuss the background and characteristics of each wine while Chef John Paul describes the inspiration and preparation of each dish. All wines to be provided by Republic National Distributing Company.

“Wines That Go Both Ways” on Aug. 26 will highlight wines and dishes that make the transition from summer to fall.  The September 23rd event will be a “Homage to Fromage!” where participants will learn how to pair wines with their favorite cheese and cheese based hors d’ouevres just in time for the holiday party season.  The October 28 event will feature “Boo-tiful Reds!” in a Halloween-inspired “all-red” wine tasting featuring sinister selections from a variety of red varietals paired with delicious dishes to match.
