Mexican Street Corn and Sausage Salad with a Vino Blanc #ImprovCookingChallenge #WinePW

This scrumptious salad was a wonderful way to enjoy the sweet corn so abundant in Michigan right now.  I paired it with a Spanish Vino Blanc from Coopers Hawk Winery.

It's Wine Pairing Weekend..................

Merry Christmas; Let's Celebrate with Cava #WorldWineTravel

 Merry Christmas Eve Everyone.  Whatever your plans are for this evening a bottle of bubbly always makes for a better celebration.  I know when people think of bubbly, Champagne comes to mind followed by the price tag and the decision to forego the sparkling wine.  

There are tons of sparkling wines out there that I daresay are just as good, if not better, than those from Champagne, France.  Some come from other areas of France but many come from other countries and some of my favorites come from Spain where they are designated Cava.

Sazon Goya Grilled Chicken Thighs and an Old Vines Garnacha #WorldWineTravel

The World Wine Travel group is still traveling around Spain this year.  It has been such a fun adventure.  This month we are visiting Navarra.  I opened a bottle of Bodegas Nekeas El Chaparral Old Vines Garnacha 2018 that I paired with a casual dinner of Grilled Chicken Thighs that had been marinated in olive oil and Sazon Goya seasoning, steamed rice and fresh buttered corn off the cob.

The Teen and I had gone to get our nails done....well she got her nails done, I got a pedicure.  We called Frank and let him know that we were on the way home and he made this delicious dinner for us.

Light up the Grill and Open that Bottle of Jumilla Wine #WorldWineTravel

Boneless Pork Loin, marinated, seasoned with a rub, placed on the rotisserie and then finished with a bbq sauce makes a great dinner as it is and in planned leftovers for the rest of the week.

I paired this roast with a red blend from Taja Vineyards in Jumilla, Spain.........
