PREMIUM WINE
Brickhouse

Whole-roasted chicken with charred summer greens
Roccolo, a cow’s milk cheese from Lombardy, Italy, with sliced baguette and alpine- flower honey

Its brightness, tart fruit, and great acidity make this wine excellent with salty, spicy, and creamy accompaniments, or with dishes that highlight summertime vegetables and fruits.

Grilled monkfish with chive and chile pepper relish and lemon mash (recipe adapted from Cook with Jamie by Jamie Oliver)
