Hello,
I will be doing a horizontal Cristom Pinot Noir tasting this Valentines day for my wife. Need to get a good appetizer and entree recipe that will pair well with their four pinot Noir’s.
Trying to make this a special night and meal. Thanks for the help!
There is a discussion about steak tartar on the main wine forum now, so…
-
Amouse bouche: some toasted baguette slices with Brillat-Savarin cheese…making sure the cheese is at room temperature. Maybe some tomato bruschetta (with only salt and olive oil in the tomato.)
-
Appetizer of steak tartar without onion.
-
Salad with charred greens, including roasted/grilled thin baby carrots and sliced beets, goat cheese sprinkles, and a light application of olive oil with a tidge of baslamic as dressing.
-
Main course of roast chicken with mushrooms and polenta.
End pinot.
- Dessert of Sauterenes and emmentaler and gruyere?
Love Anton’s menu, particularly the chicken. I would also add gougeres as a possible amuse bouche - go fantastically with Pinot and pretty easy to make.
