My mom and sister are coming in town to celebrate with me so I'm going to make a delicious Easter Feast complete with wine pairings. I always celebrate on Saturday so I can spend the day at the wineries on Sunday. Recipes coming soon! What are your plans this year?
A wonderful way
to start the celebration is with a glass of bubbles. I suggest Champagne Laurent-Perrier Brut L-P
($39.99), Bellenda Prosecco Brut ($19.99), and Carpene Malvolti Prosecco Brut
($19.99).
Starters:
Baked Citrus Les Freres (Crave Brothers and Ventura Orangecello)
Spinach and Pea Salad with Pine Nuts and Pesto
Main Event:
Lobster Risotto (Get Maine Lobster) with Cakebread Chardonnay
($37.00)
Garlic and Herb Lamb Loin Chops (Tri-Lamb Group) with Halter Ranch Côtes
de Paso 2010 ($30.00)
Baked Ham with Bodegas Franco Espanolas Rioja
Bordon Gran Reserva ($25) or Angoris Villa Locatelli Refosco
($12)
Sides:
Deviled Egg Salad
Asparagus with Lemon and Butter
I suggest
the Pinot Bianco from Villa Locatelli ($12) or Bodegas Franco Espanolas Rioja Royal
White ($10). These wines are made only in
stainless steel which makes them fresh and very fruit forward wines highlighting
their minerality.
Dessert:
Savvy Treats Carrot Cake Cupcakes and Baked by Yael Carrot Cake Pops paired with Taylor Fladgate 10 Year Old Tawny Port
($31.99)
Cocktail:
Signature Easter Punch (Thyme, Ventura Limoncello, Half Moon Orchard Gin)
I'm also pairing the meal with Sexy Wine.
