Korean Short Ribs

Ron makes the very best Korean Short Ribs, and it’s what we will be having for my birthday dinner this year! We discovered this recipe from my dear friend, Mona. She is the mother of Jessica Mozeico of Et Fille Wines, and she is a fabulous cook. I had to have it to celebrate my birthday! We will be pairing it with the 2022 Kikoi Red Blend. This wine pairs perfectly with its dark berry notes and bright acidity. It loves to be friends with grilled meat!

Tuna Linguine

Sometimes, simplicity is best, and this recipe is a perfect example of how just a few ingredients can create a delicious meal. It’s a specialty of my dad’s, and it reminds me of home, always. Plus, it pairs perfectly with my 2022 Sauvignon Blanc!

Shrimp Scampi with Orzo

This quick and easy shrimp scampi is absolutely delicious! It's garlicky and buttery with bursts of lemon, red pepper flakes, and fresh parsley. For an added burst of flavor, add cherry tomatoes and feta cheese. It pairs beautifully with the Lolati Sauvignon Blanc.

Ron’s Cocktail Sauce

My brother-in-law recently brought back fresh Dungeness crab from Astoria, OR. Naturally, we enjoyed it with the 2022 Sauvignon Blanc, and Ron (my husband) made a delicious cocktail sauce. I highly recommend this pairing!
