Review of Vermont signature sauces



Last night my wife and I finally were able to try our samples from Vermont signature sauces.Due to our varied schedules we sometimes can't have dinner together but last nights was delicious!!We had some tenderloin steaks she cooked to what I thought was perfection but it wasn't until we added our new favorite Marchand De Vin sauce.I have been working in the food trade since I was 14,I have worked in kitchens in cafeterias,hospitals,exclusive country clubs,and top class banquet houses.In other words I've been around some very upscale chef's and know a lot about sauces and such.
The sauces are very top of the line,delicious,and very affordable.I highly recommend each flavor,although I haven't tried the Delmon sauce yet guess what we are having tonight.
