Wines

Food

Dagueneau Pouilly Fume, Sauvignon Blanc, Crisp White, Loire, Fr. This wine is made according to traditional methods; direct pressing and then matured on fine lees, expressing fruity, exotic flavors of grapefruit and other citrus fruit along with rich mineral flavors

Pistachios

Such a great pairing with Sauvignon Blanc.  These are from Fastachi.

 

Domaine Gauby Calcinaires Blanc, Muscat, Chardonnay, Macabeu, and Grenache Gris, Soft White, Roussillon, Fr, Y, Nose of pineapple, lime, mint, and pistachio. Silken and subtly oily in texture, yet bright and refreshing, tinged with honey, mint, citrus zest, pistachio, and white pepper, leading to a luscious finish   

Gruyere

From Switzerland, a wonderful, all-around fantastic cheese.  Not just for melting.

Domaine Schoffit Chasselas, Soft White, Alsace, Fr, From a small, .9ha parcel of Chasselas planted in 1940 on alluvial soils of gravel in Colmar.  Entirely hand-harvested, fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks.  The old age of the vines gives density and complexity to this dry Chasselas. The slightest whiff of pepper on the nose leads to a spiced, leesy and slender palate  

Mashed Pea and Ham Crostini

Ray’s creation with peas, Jambon de Bayonne ham from France, mint and more.

 

Domaine des Aphillanthes Grenache, Cinsault, Mourvèdre, Counoise, Rose, Rhone Fr, Ripe strawberry and raspberry aromas. Crisp acidity and dry, with lots of strawberry, citrus, and raspberry flavors followed by a long slightly tart mineral finish. Sumptuous and long on the palate    

Esquirrou

This pasteurized sheep’s milk cheese from the Basque area of France won 1stprize at the 2018 World Cheese Championships (beating over 3,000 entrants!).  Rich, nutty and toasty.

Domaine Gauby Calcinaires Rouge, Carignan, Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre, Bold Red, Roussillon, Fr, Y, Awesome, A lovely nose, with meaty saddle and barnyard aromas; lean fruit on the palate, lovely balance, finesse & a beguiling texture 

Potatoes Bravas

The classic use of Brava Sauce in Spain.  Great also with pasta, eggs, pork dishes, and more.

Manzone Barolo, Nebbiolo, Bold Red, Monforte d'Alba, Piemonte, Italy, Fragrant blue flower, woodland berry, dark spice and pine forest aromas lead the way. It's racy, focused and loaded with chiseled finesse, delivering juicy red cherry, crushed cranberry, cinnamon and star anise. Tightly knit, refined tannins and firm acidity provide the backbone  

Laiki Brown Rice Crackers

Gluten free and delicious.  Made with 3 simple ingredients – black rice, oil, and salt.
