Seafood friendly Viognier

Viognier is an ideal foil for lobster with drawn butter, in fact it is a refreshing change for any white seafood dish. Look for quality Viogniers from France, California and BC.

Which Rouxbe recipe you recommend for this wine?

I have a Cavit Pinot Noir 2007, from your recipe collection, which one would you select to pair it?

Lets start a wine group.

My love of wine is part of my life. I would enjoy a place to discuss wine and food with people. The real trick is to find good wine at a price we can afford. I cant spend 35 dollars a bottle. So the search goes on for a good 15 dollar wine.

Thanks for any help.

Pairing Ideas for Pinot Noir

HI Carlos, here are a few suggestions for your Pinot Noir. As Pinots are typically lighter than most other reds, this makes them a very versatile food wine.

Here are my suggestions:

Re: Good Affordable Wines

Lately we have been enjoying a Cabernet Sauvignon from Argentine called Pascual Toso. It's the 2007 Reserve and it's only about $19 dollars a bottle. Cheers!

Wine Pairing

How about hot Seared Foie Gras with a single glass of chilled pudding wine such as a Sauternes or Barsac or less costly, a good Monbazillac, Saussignac or Loupiac.

Ecco Domani Chianti

I have been really pleased with the Chianti from Ecco Domani. it has a great peppery taste that pairs well with many dishes, such as pasta Bolognese, roasted chicken, and Portobello mushrooms with sirloin.. Sangiovese grapes are the main component of the wine.
