This cake is reminiscent of Black Forest gâteau but with more chocolaty depth. The cake's dark chocolate flavor is enhanced by Dutch-processed cocoa powder, which produces a much deeper, Oreo-like chocolaty taste than natural unsweetened cocoa powder. A glossy, cherry-red layer of preserves keeps the crumb moist and tender. Don't forget the actual cherries on top; they'll make you happy. It is absolutely delicious, and it pairs well with Lolati 2020 Grenache.

Meatloaf is a classic dish and my parents made this version for me when I was growing up and it is still a favorite of mine! It’s the perfect dish for fall and pairs beautifully with Lolati Grenache.

A delicious one-pot meal with lots of fresh herbs and spices. The eggplant and tomatoes cook down into a nice savory jam. Don't skip on the labneh (or yogurt) as it's essential to the creaminess and overall dish. Best paired with the Lolati 2021 Kikoi Red Blend.

With asparagus in season, my garden is full of asparagus! I made this salad a few years ago and recently recreated it, and forgot how delicious it is. The simplicity of the dressing really allows the asparagus and citrus to shine. Make it for your next BBQ or dinner party and pair it with the Lolati Wines Sauvignon Blanc.

Barbecue sauce is one of my favorite sauces to eat in the summertime and this recipe will become your go-to! It is tangy and a little sweet, which makes it perfect for summer grilling. Pair your grilled masterpiece with the Lolati Grenache to wow your guests.

These deviled eggs and shrimp appetizers and fairly easy and taste so, so delicious! A must-try for your next party.

Here is one of my favorite bread recipes, courtesy of Jim Lahey, owner of Sullivan Street Bakery. It requires no kneading, uses no special ingredients, equipment, or techniques, and takes very little effort—only time. You will need 24 hours to create the bread, but much of this is unattended waiting, a slow fermentation of the dough that results in a perfect loaf.

This quick and easy salad is the perfect summer dish! The hint of curry and zing from the lemon is what makes this dish incredible. The recipe calls for turkey, but a rotisserie chicken is a delicious substitute! This pairs beautifully with the Lolati Wines Rosé of Grenache.

This chicken salad recipe doesn't have specific measurements. It's a favorite of my husband's, and I usually estimate the measurements. It goes perfectly with some crusty bread and arugula, and pairs well with the 2023 Lolati Rosé of Grenache.

“Just as there will always be a place in the world for an understated but luxurious black dress, there will always be a place for flourless chocolate cake. This recipe from 1969 was one of the first published, long before the cake became fashionable. Of course, since the recipe has so few ingredients, it is imperative to use truly delicious chocolate." - Evelyn Sharpe

I've been making these thumbprint cookies my entire life! They are so easy, don't require eggs, and taste delicious.

While visiting my parents in Indiana, we cooked some amazing dinners, and this dish was a stand-out! It is so delicious and simple! Pair it with the 2020 Grenache or the 2022 Red Wine Blend.

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!

This cake is on the less-sweet side, but if you want it sweeter, you can use 1 cup of jam or marmalade (any kind of your choice) swirled in lieu of the unsweetened berries. The result will be a little sweeter and a bit more subtle in its delivery of the fruit, but still very delicious. Pair it with 2023 Lolati Rosé of Grenache.

This bacon and spinach quiche is so easy and perfect for breakfast or brunch! The crème fraîche is a game-changer in this recipe, adding a nice richness. Pair it with Lolati Rosé of Grenache.
