Holiday Wines 2016
‘Tis the season to recommend wines for the Holidays. We believe this post is “more complete” than the recommendations provided by your local newspaper or wine merchant.

French Onion soup may be old school, but it’s given new life when paired with this Rhone blend from the Ventoux region of southern France.
Grilled Chicken Thighs and “The Noble Wine”
Elevate the status of chicken thighs by pairing it with mushrooms, tomatoes, pancetta . . . and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano – Tuscany’s friendly version of Sangiovese.
Vacqueyras and Mongolian Lamb Barbecue
Lamb has an affinity for spiced marinades. This dish is an excellent example of how good this can be, especially when grilled and paired with a Southern Rhone wine like Vacqueyras!
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!
