Check out this week’s wine pairings:

Sherry Garlic Mushrooms

Principiano Slarina Langhe Rosso | Barolo, Italy ($35) - Slarina is a much forgotten Piemontese local grape, with notes of bright blackberry, damson and blueberry. Pure, saturated fruits with fresh aromatics. 

Rosemary Beef & Delicata

Big Basin Homestead | California ($24) -  An ode to the Rhone Valley hailing from California, the Big Basin Homestead is bold, juicy and super-expressive, with an exuberant nose of black and red raspberries, red currants, crushed rocks and hints of crushed flowers and anise.

Mushroom Cream Chicken

Brick and Mortar Pinot Noir | Sonoma Coast, California ($32) -  Richly flavored with a mix of dark berries, mushrooms, and dried cedar. Hints of graphite and sea salt bring another dimension that comes together with a bright acidity driving a long finish.

Lebanese Kale & Chickpeas

Chalmers Rosato | Australia ($25) - Not your basic provençal rosé! This Australian rosé bursts with notes of rhubarb, rose, strawberry, and a light grip on the finish.

Cashew Chicken Stir Fry

Selbach Oster Gewurtztraminer | Germany ($26) - This wine is positively surreal, with complex aromas of Turkish delight, fresh thyme and rosemary, persimmon and lychee.

Harissa Salmon

Chalmers Rosato | Australia ($25) - Not your basic provençal rosé! This Australian rosé bursts with notes of rhubarb, rose, strawberry, and a light grip on the finish.
