Red Wine

Rocca delle Macìe Famiglia Zingarelli Tenuta Fizzano Il Crocino Gran Selezione Chianti Classico 2021, Chianti Classico D.O.C.G., Italy: Famiglia Zingarelli Tenuta Fizzano Il Crocino Gran Selezione Chianti Classico 2021, from Rocca delle Macìe sourced from the Di Fizzano single vineyard in Tuscany, offers a dry, medium-bodied profile driven by Sangiovese. The wine bursts with vibrant red fruit, dark cherry, and plum, enhanced by savoury herb and black pepper nuances. With its smooth, umami-like texture and refined tannins, this wine is a perfect match for grilled meats, medallions of veal, or grilled sausage. Enjoy now or cellar to 2030. Chianti Classico food pairings: medallions of veal, grilled sausage, roast chicken.

Other Wines/Drinks

Crown Royal Whisky, Canada: Canada’s number 1 whisky Crown Royal Fine Deluxe was created in 1939 to commemorate the Canadian visit of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, with the bottle given to them as a gift in a purple velvet bag. Live generously, right? The silky smoothness of Crown Royal Fine De Luxe makes it the perfect whisky for any classic cocktail, like an Old Fashioned or Whisky Sour. You can also enjoy it neat or on the rocks. I’d pair this with maple-glazed pork tenderloin where the juicy meat is roasted to perfection and brushed with a reduction of maple syrup, mustard and rosemary, creating a caramelized exterior that complements the whisky’s smooth character.
