Wine pairings at The Briars Resort tonight. Fall discoveries…

The following pairings went over big tonight with 55 dinner guests

Roasted Tomato Soup – WINE: ANGELS GATE RIESLING SÜSS RESERVE (WHITE, NIAGARA)

Caesar Salad – WINE: BOUTARI MOSCHOFILERO (WHITE, GREECE)

Roast Beef Tenderloin – WINE: SOUTHBROOK CAB FRANC (RED, NIAGARA)

Briars Crème Brulee – WINE: VIEWPOINTE BIG BLUFF (RED, ESSEX PELEE ISLAND COAST)

The Greek white by Boutari and the Viewpointe red blend were especially popular tonight! And the food tonight was exceptional.

  Yes indeed. The varietal is Moschofilero (the Greek answer to Pinot Grigio). Nice and fruity and amazing viscosity. Great mouthfeel. This is a sleeper and I’m not easily impressed.
