Kale Pesto Tilapia is light and healthy dish to enjoy this spring along with a white wine from the Southern Rhone. Sharing as part of the Wine Pairing Weekend visit to the region. Red wine comes to mind when I first think of the Rhone.  But Jill from L’occasion asked us to pair a spring…

Ziti with Swordfish and Truffle Butter

I love Languedoc wines! Of course, the region doesn’t have the reputation of Burgundy or Bordeaux, but this just means it can be a great source of quality wine values. This region in southern France, properly called Languedoc-Roussillon, has a wide range of interesting grape varietals and produces good white, red and rosé wine. I had…
