Romesco
There is no perfect wine for this sauce, but since we’re serving steak here, I think red wine would be best. We are featuring a wonderful red from Sicily this week that is a perfect wine for a variety of foods, the ‘Norma’ Etna Rosso from Valenti vineyards.
Etna Rosso wines are usually a blend of up to two grapes, primarily Nerello Mascalese, with some Nerello Cappuccio. The wine shows as a restrained expression of berry fruit, spice and herbs with a lean, mineral backbone owing to the volcanic soil of the land. If you like Pinot Noir, you will love this wine!
