So i am pairing some wines to a tasting menu that i am doing and i have a few ideas but wanted to see if anyone has a sure fix dish one Grilled Calamari anchovies, capers, Gaeta olives, onions, roasted garlic, lemon, beurre noisette (an amazing dish)
dish two Grilled Mahoggany Quail on a fig and stilton barley with a jus
my first idea is to go towards a burgundian chard perhaps a meursault or st-Aubin
my other choice is a red Pelaverga piccolo

oh that would be lovely
but i do not think that they are imported to my province
from my understanding the production is very limited and mostly consumed in the basque region.do you see a lot of it.

I have seen them offered through a few distributors in Oregon. I'm featuring one in a tasting tomorrow. I'll let you know how it fares.
