A hardy Minestrone can pair nicely with a number of Italian reds. But we thought this Veronese blend from Antinori struck the right chord.
Salmon: Chardonnay or Pinot Noir?
Grilled Salmon pairs beautifully with a number of light-styled wines. Choosing one depends on the sauce or salsa accompaniment.
Fiano di Avellino and Seared Sesame Tuna
Some outstanding wines are now coming from Campania – both whites and reds. Nothing better illustrates than the food-friendly Fiano di Avellino – a terrific pairing partner with seared sesame tuna.
Gigondas with Grilled Ribs & Peaches
Grilled Country Style Pork Ribs and Grilled Peaches – a memorable combination that should definitely be on your summer menu. A Gigondas from the South of France was a perfect match!
Zinfandel and Smoked Pork Ribs
Nothing spells the start of summer better than the sweet smell of smoked pork ribs. Surely an All-American wine like Zinfandel would stand up to the bold flavors, but we wanted a red wine throwdown.
