Starter – Ogio Prosecco DOC (Veneto Italy) - $21.95
This Prosecco served nicely chilled will provide a crisp and pleasant start to the evening.
First Pairing – Batasiolo Barbera d'Alba DOC (Piedmont Italy) - $16.75.
This wine nicely compliments the Mushroom salad with Parm and Arugula, Ribollita soup and Mushroom Penne. It is a KWM favourite red with aromas and flavours of red fruits, violets, leather and spice. Its prominent acidity is followed by rich tannins and subdued sweet and sour red cherry notes.
Second Pairing – St. Francis Cabernet Sauvignon (Sonoma California) - $42.95
This wine works well with the Beef Tenderloin, notes of dark red fruits, wild berries and black berry compliment spicy accents of clove, licorice and a bit of ground expresso bean. The concentrated flavours and smooth tannins are balanced with a thread of acidity yielding a long, juicy finish.
