Tomatillo-Avocado Salsa
Wine-Bodega Calle Alberti 154 Malbec
“Garnet violet color. Aromas of roasted nuts, latte, and dried berries with a supple, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a zesty, chocolate citrus peel, bacon bits, and earth accented finish with fine chewy tannins. Excellent balance and flavor for a wide range of foods.”
Entrée
Carbonada Criolla
(Argentina Beef Stew)
Wine-Durigutti Cabernet Franc
“This is very floral and inviting on the nose with notes of rosemary, violets, lavender, citrus, orange peel and boysenberries, as well as lots of spicy undertones. Full-bodied and really seductive with tightly-wound, grainy tannins, vibrant acidity and a long, succulent finish. Drink in 2021. -James Suckling 91 pts.”
