Toasted Pheasant Bistro (14445 N. Dale Mabry Hwy., Tampa, 813-265-6700 or toastedpheasant.com) has always been generous when it comes to wine dinners, but this one reaches new lows. Or highs? The only caveat is that the wines are all from Virginia -- Kluge Estate, to be exact -- which may be either a positive or a negative, depending on your personal level of wine snobbery.
