Rating: 4/5
1/8″ thick slice of fresh mozzarella wrapped in prosciutto and then flashed fried on the skillet in some olive oil.
Wine: Owen Roe Sinister Hand 2009 – 70% Grenache, 25% Syrah, 3% Mourvedre, 2% Counoise
Notes:
This wine was so tasty on a brisk fall day. Peppery, earthy, balanced tannin and a wild strawberry punch to knock you into submission. It has enough body and just enough tannin to take on the fat (prosciutto) on fat (mozzarella) on fat (olive oil) delight, break it down in the mouth and make for a satisfying stay in your stomach. I maxed out at 4 of these, but I was in love. The more health-conscious eater might stick to just 2.
