Kuri Limari Valley Sauvignon Blanc paired with little cucumber cups filled with a light crab salad. The crunchy green cukes with that bit of crab salad with lime and cilantro….SO GOOD!!

“Blue cheese bacon dip with Tanglerose Backyard Red :)” Nicole E.

Home Office:
“My favorite summer pairing makes use of tomatoes fresh from the garden combined with buffalo mozzarella, basil pesto and grilled chicken on a flatbread. The fruity flavors of a Sangiovese-based wine like a Chianti or a Super Tuscan work well with the sweetness of the tomatoes. As a lighter red, it’s great in warmer weather when you’re dining al fresco.” – Denise
