FROM OUR KITCHEN
Each season we will bring you simple elegant recipes matched to our Peirson Meyer Wines with the ultimate goal that the food and wine will combine in such a way that “the whole is greater than the sum of its parts”. In the world of philosophy, systems theory and science, this would be labeled a “strong emergence”, here we just call it “wonderful”. We welcome your questions and comments; please contact Lesley Warner at: l.w@peirsonmeyer.com
BEEF, BEETS AND BLUE
Paired with our Peirson Meyer Pinot Noir from Sonoma Stage Vineyard, we present a meal of Grilled beef filet served with sautéed batonnets of red and golden beets, complemented with sautéed leeks and beet greens topped with tiny garlic infused croutons and crumbles of rich blue cheese. Exciting the palette with earthy sweet flavors, salty richness and a bit of crunch, this combination intertwines beautifully with the weight, complexity and pleasing natural acidity of our Sonoma Stage Pinot Noir.
