Fish Friday Foodies pairs up with the Winophiles in today's post.......

Sid of Sid's Sea Palm Cooking was hosting this month and had chosen the theme "Shortcut Seafood" inviting us to share recipes that use canned, frozen or pouched seafood.  Here are the recipes being shared today.......

• Culinary Adventures with Camilla is plating an Ensalada de Atún y Pimientos
• A Day in the Life on the Farm is serving up Linguini with White Beans and Tuna 
• Sneha's Recipe cooked up Prawn and Onion Stir Fry
• Food Lust People Love made some Red Pesto Linguine 
• Palatable Pastime is giving us a Tea Room Tuna Salad Plate
• Karen's Kitchen Stories is ladling out a Smoked Salmon Bisque 
• Making Miracles shares her recipe for  Tuna Patties

I found this recipe over at Epicurious and knew that the Teen and I would love it.  Frank?, not so much...he is not a canned tuna lover.  However, he did taste it and said he could eat it if that's all I had.  Fortunately, for him, I had some leftover fried chicken and potato salad in the refrigerator for his dinner.

He did share the wine with me though and it paired just as well with his Fried Chicken as it did with my Linguine with White Beans and Tuna.

Lynn of Savor the Harvest invited us to join her in exploring the wines of Maury this month.  I had never even heard of Maury.  How about you?  No? Then you are definitely going to want to read Lynn's Preview Post.

You will learn that Maury is a region in Roussilon and it offers many different varietals of wine.  I went to wine.com and searched Maury.  They offered 4 wines that shipped to Michigan.  A Grenache, two red blends and the Rose that I am sharing with you today.  I went with Rose because Summer is finally here in Michigan and Rose is one of my favorite summer sippers.

Fragile is a blend of Grenache and Mourvedre.  It is from Department 66 Winery located in Rousillon, 2 hours east of Barcelona, Spain.  The vines are ancient, surviving the extreme heat that this area gets during the day.  This heat and the terroir, which is very rocky, produces dark, concentrate fruit in very low yields.

The wine poured a beautiful salmon pink and was bone dry and crisp.  I find that Roses are very food friendly and this bottle certainly proved my point pairing well with both mine and Frank's dinner of choice.

We are gathering tomorrow at 11 AM ET for Twitter Chat where we will be talking more about the wines of Maury.  We would love to have you join us.  You will find us by following #Winophiles.  Here is a list of the topics we will be discussing.......
