Dinner:
Cheese Pizza
Sushi (half california roll and half tuna roll)
Chicken Quesadilla
Brownie with cream cheese frosting
Wines:
1. Ecco Domani, Italian, 2014, Pinot Grigio
2. Reserve Perrin, France, 2001, Red
3. San Elias, Chile, 2013, Red
4. Rex-Goliath, California, 2013, Sauvignon Blanc
Here are my notes from the dinner:
Pinot Grigio - Apple and pear with a lemon zest, good to pair with the sushi because it is light. I don't like it with the pizza, it makes the wine taste really bad, like BO.
Reserve - good with the pizza, brought out the red sauce taste...there was a little spice tasted in the wine that helped make the pizza taste better than it probably was. The wine did taste a little vinegary
Sauvignon Blanc - Tastes like really sweet pears, or green apples, the actual wine itself does not smell. It brings out the cheese taste in the quesadilla, also kind of brings out the cream taste which seemed a little weird but tasted good.
San Elias - Very, very oaky wine. Seemed smokey on the nose and also could smell a lot of cherries. Reminded me of the outdoors. It paired perfectly with the brownie, the sweet and oak tasted really good together.
