#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!
Wine with Friends | Solvero Pinot Noir
This is the first BC wine to be featured in Wine With Friends and I am especially excited to share my thoughts and impressions, as well as those of my friends who joined me for the tasting of the Solvero 2019 Pinot Noir.
#ThisWineThatDish | Frind Riesling | Fettucini with Asparagus Pesto
The wine needed to be able to handle the earthy, sweetish combination of the asparagus pesto and lightly cooked asparagus tips, as well as stand up to the distinct lemon flavour.
