Linguini with Rustic Tomato Sauce

Started with fresh tomatoes, onion, garlic and basil. Browned the meatballs in a cast iron pan, then transferred them to a baking dish and into the oven at 350. Rough cut the tomatoes, onion, crushed the garlic. Garlic and onion in the pan using the meatballs grease for oil. Added tomatoes and cooked for a few minutes. Asparagus seasoned with salt and pepper and into the oven. Allowed the sauce to cook down a little and blend together. Cooked the linguini. Added torn basil to the sauce. Pulled the pasta from the pot and added to the sauce to finish cooking.

Plated the pasta, meatballs and asparagus, added parm cheese and served.
Added some pickled cauliflower on the side.

Paid this with a Cascade Cliffs 2019 Nebbiolo – AMAZING WINE.

Kevin White – 2017 En Hommage

Kevin White

Kevin White, is in my opinion, one of the best wineries in Woodinville right now, and for the last couple of years. This 2017 Syrah is from Boushey and Olsen Vineyards.
On the nose is dried herb, red berry, maybe a touch of citrus? Light smoke.
This wine is smooth with raspberry, red fruit, a touch of smoke.
This wine, like everything Kevin has done the last 3 or 4 years (and maybe longer?) is AMAZING!

If you have not been to Kevin White Winery, GET THERE. One of the best values in Woodinville and some of, if not THE, best wine in Woodinville right now.

Three of Cups – 2018 Mourvedre

Three of Cups 2018 Mourvedre

Three of Cups is one of my favourite wineries in Woodinville. This 2018 Mourvedre (100% and from Columbia Valley) is a fantastic wine. On the nose grilled meat, dark berry (blueberry?) and dried herb and pepper. First sip, blueberry and herbs. Second try pepper, maybe something like prune?
This is a club only wine (sorry all).

Great wine. Great winery. Make sure next time in Woodinville you swing by, they are in Artisan Hill.
