#ThisWineThatDish | La Frenz Vivant | Honey-Glazed Mushrooms with Spinach
Nothing like a dish that is unusual, and a bit difficult to find just the right pairing, to create some excitement in the kitchen and at the dining table.

Wine with Friends | il Molino di Grace | Chianti Classico 2018
“The road to a friend’s house is never long.” This is especially true when the purpose of the visit is to discover the secrets of a new wine. This is the first of four wines from il Molino di Grace.
#ThisWineThatDish | Stag’s Hollow Pinot Noir | Skillet Spanakopita
For this dish I spent some time choosing the wine pairing, and no wonder, try Googling Spanakopita and the suggestions run from Sauvignon Blanc to a Beaujlais. I think I found the perfect balance with the Stag’s Hollow Pinot Noir.
#ThisWineThatDish | Culmina Dilemma | Seared Scallops ala Valentine
I specifically chose a Culmina Chardonnay, first and foremost, because they make such excellent wines, all on my favourites list.
#ThisWineThatDish | Cambria Katherine’s Vineyard Chardonnay | Summer Fresh
Just to add a bit more Valentine’s colour to this dinner I am including the recipe for Roasted Red Pepper Soup, and yes, it uses Summer Fresh Roasted Red Pepper Hummus too, easy peasy!
