Happy Thanksgiving! Here are some ideas for what to pour for dinner tonight. All the best!
Venison and Nero d’Avola
Farm-raised Venison Tenderloin – the healthier red meat – is a game-changer. No guilt. Serve it with Green Peppercorn Sauce and Sicily’s noble red wine, Nero d’Avola.
Domaine Tempier
Rare is the winery tour where one gets the opportunity to taste wine that’s one week old! And wine that’s 30 years old! That was the case for us at Domaine Tempier in Le Plan du Castellet, France.
Restaurant JAN in Nice, FR
Restaurants frequently disappoint. But it’s all the more memorable when you find one that truly delivers. Check out our experience in the city of Nice.
Etna Rosso and Grilled Porcini-Rubbed Rib-Eye Steak
You’ve been grilling steaks for years. But you’ve probably never grilled like this blog post suggests. I posit that this will be your new way to grill Rib-Eye! Check it out.
Argentine Torrontés and Romesco Sauce #WinePW
Ready for an alternative to dairy-based sauces for fish and vegetables? Enter Romesco – a roasted vegetable sauce from Spain that will move into your top 10 list. Serve it with Torrontes for a unique food and wine pairing experience.
Sake and Yakitori
Fatigued from grilling chicken the same old way? And serving it with the same old white wine? Then it’s time to look to the way the Japanese grill chicken and what they drink with it!
The Wines of Château Beaucastel
A boat cruise up the Rhone River in Southern France took us from Tarascon (just south of Avignon) to Lyon. One of the many highlights included a tour, tasting and lunch at Château de Beaucastel, a famous producer in Chateauneuf du Pape. Check out the menu and wine pairings!
Sicilian Food and Wine
Just finished reading a book titled The World of Sicilian Wine. The Island is a treasure trove of unique wines and native ingredients to make for really interesting wine and food pairings.
Japan Restaurants
On our two-week trip to Japan, we discovered excellent restaurants, historic shrines and beautiful parks & resort areas. But it was the cultural habits seen in the daily lives of the Japanese that caught my eye. Check out this post!
