“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.
There is nothing more delightful than starting your day tasting Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG.
This week, I am doing a special complete 3-course meal take-out box for YANA Big Love Benefit.
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.
I specifically chose a Culmina Chardonnay, first and foremost, because they make such excellent wines, all on my favourites list.
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!
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.
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.
Could it get any better than this? Whether you are sharing this highly rated Pinot Noir with your sweetie for Valentine’s or with you BFF for Galentine’s Day this wine is the ticket!
