I went with the 2009 Château de Peyrassol Côtes de Provence Rosé. it is good wine, but it didn't do well with the dish, to the point where i thought it wasn't good wine. the left over half the next day was much better. i'll be making this dish again this fall because it's awesome, but next time trying one of these suggestions (or perhaps a savory blanc de blancs, which was my other idea).Brooklynguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16321573602782343974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-69078410457558504872010-10-23T16:24:25.369-04:002010-10-23T16:24:25.369-04:00To my taste, Grosjean Petite Arvine.To my taste, Grosjean Petite Arvine.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-17729145287669828342010-10-23T14:10:44.042-04:002010-10-23T14:10:44.042-04:00Okay, okay, it's not compelling enough for me ...Okay, okay, it's not compelling enough for me though I have some ideas...michelecollinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-83632404601040488742010-10-23T12:45:06.995-04:002010-10-23T12:45:06.995-04:00Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi.Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi.Bryon Adams-Harfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01464319176050413148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-86600257699356125142010-10-23T12:38:27.981-04:002010-10-23T12:38:27.981-04:00Brooklyn,
