This weeks pairing includes the Davis Family Pinot Noir. Yummer!!!) and a succulent Roast Chicken.

Pinot Noir pairs well with a very wide range of foods-vegetables, fish, poultry, pork, lamb, pasta, stew, casseroles, even deserts.

This time I chose to do a wonderful Herb Roasted Chicken. Again a very simple recipe that relies on only two things: A good quality free range chicken and a good, solid roasting technique. That's really all good food is: Good product--well techiqued.

The other key to my version of roast chicken is the seasonings. I've never actually measured how much seasoning I use, so let me start by admitting the measurements I'm listing in this recipe are guesstimates. If in doubt, I say, use more. I season the heck out of my chickens (on both sides) and they always come out flavorful and juicy.

The Davis Family Pinot Noir has a fruit forward sense with a good amount of smoke on the nose and great fruit sense on the mid pallet, making this an ideal pairing with the Chicken.

Todays Wine and Food pairing includes Pan Seared Scallops and wonderful un-oaked Chardonnay. With Seared Scallops you get that wonderful combination of a crusty outer crunch and a velvety sweet middle. Yum! The Barn d'Or Chardonnay, unlike many California Chardonnays, is not aged in Oak. This decision has carefully preserved the intricate flavors and aromas of this delicate Chardonnay grape.

With its crisp, fresh pear flavors and tropical notes of mango, melon and peach, this lovely wine remains untouched by oak barrels, a decision that has carefully preserved the intricate flavors and aromas of the delicate Chardonnay grapes.

Had a great tasting at Jay's home in the Pocket Area last night. The Prosecco, the Riesling and the Sauvignon Blanc were major hits. The Malbec got everybody talking: "What's a Malbec?"--They loved it. But the clear winner of the evening was the Lustful Marriage, a meritage from Paso Robles. Killer wine. Thanks to Jay and his family for a fabulous, albeit long evening. Cheers.

Our winemakers vs. the big boys. At harvest time our winemakers tell their crew to go out and pick the clusters from Lot 12. The big boys winemaker tells his crew to call in the John Deere and pull up the back forty. Guess which tastes better?
