#FavouriteThings Holiday Gift Suggestions | Tinhorn Creek 🍷 🎅

Returning this year with an excellent selection of Oldfield Reserve wines #FavouriteThings Holiday Gift Suggestions. For the discriminating wine lover on your list, or for yourself because you deserve to be spoiled a little bit this holiday season.

#ThisWineThatDish | Hester Creek Pinot Gris Viognier | Pan Seared Icelandic Cod

As a new convert to this delicately flavoured fish it is fast becoming one of my favourite dishes. Seared, baked or steamed this fish keeps it’s firm texture and retains its moistness. Delicious no matter how it’s prepared or served.

#ThisWineThatDish | Maverick Chardonnay | Spicy Butternut Squash Pasta

This dish was so rich and indescribably delicious and it’s simple enough for a weekday dinner. Anyone could make this pasta dish and it is suprisingly flavourful even though it uses no onions or garlic.

#FavouriteThings Holiday Gift Suggestions | La Frenz Winery 🍷 🎅

A favourite of our #ThisWineThatDish series it is exciting to include these pairable wines that I know you are going to enjoy as much as I do.

Wine with Friends | Michel Gassier Lou Coucardié 2012

From time to time I am the fortunate recipient of wines sent to me to review. It is especially nice to share these wines with friends. Not only does it make for lively conversation, and often diverse opinions, but it also makes for a very enjoyable occasion.

#ThisWineThatDish | Church and State Cabernet Sauvignon | Miso Butternut Squash Pasta

Now that fall has arrived the Butternut Squash is superb and readily available at farmer’s markets or the grocery store. This is a simple version that can easily be prepared for a weeknight dinner.

Wine with Friends | Château Pesquié Red 2019

From time to time I am the fortunate recipient of wines sent to me to review. It is especially nice to share these wines with friends. Not only does it make for lively conversation, and often diverse opinions, but it also makes for a very enjoyable occasion.

#ThisWineThatDish | Evolve Cellars Spontaneity | Cauliflower Gratin

Roasting the cauliflower tames the bitterness and brings out the sweet, crispiness that makes it so appealing in this dish. Add goat cheese, and the right wine, perfection!

Water Street Cafe | Noble Ridge | Wine Dinner first in a series…

The evening started pleasantly with an atmosphere enhanced by sparkling lights and mellow instrumental sounds of a sitar. There was no doubt that Chef Alan really pulled out all the stops when it came to the dishes that were paired with the Nobel Ridge wines.
