This weekend, we are sharing our new recipe for Roasted Acorn Squash Soup, along with a pairing recommendation - St. Innocent Cuvée Willamette Pinot Noir.
A nice hearty soup + perfect pairing! My #winepw article for our pairings with #oregonwine theme.

Made our London Broil with Mushrooms again recently - a delicious way to enjoy this lean cut of beef. Made a few updates to our recipe post, including adding this affordable French Rhone wine pairing along with the CDP we paired before. #recipes #wine

Dinner kept simple: takeout mushroom & olive pizza + a Flavium Selección Mencía (Bierzo, Spain). Earthy like a Pinot Noir, but more red fruit & tannins — great match for the pizza. More Spanish pairings:

A pickle soup recipe in @foodandwine reminded me how much we loved the pickle soup at a beer dinner years ago. It inspired me to develop my own Polish Dill Pickle Soup recipe. After several attempts, I nailed it! 🥒🍲
Save this one for #soup season!

Another easy dinner for the air fryer! These boneless pork chops came out juicy and flavorful, with a simple seasoning blend and about 10 minutes of cooking time.

Red wine with salmon? Yes, really. 🍷🐟
The key is how you're serving it — mushroom-topped salmon loves a Pinot Noir, while pesto preparations call for a full-bodied white.
