*FIRST

SWORDFISH ESCABECHE
crusted avocado, arugula, bell peppers & spicy orange chimichurri
****2012 TORRONTÉS/CHENIN BLANC, CUYUM MAPU, MENDOZA, ARGENTINA
50/50%. this little wine is a glass of sunshine. the chenin tamps down the torrontés-iness quite nicely.

*SECOND

LOBSTER EMPANADAS
parsley pesto cream sauce & grilled asparagus
****2013 SAUVIGNON BLANC, BODEGAS CARRAU, SUR LIE, CERRO CHAPEAU, URUGUAY
a little more weightiness makes for a richer mouthfeel with beautiful round fruit.

roasted squash, goat cheese, polenta & charred radishes
****2010 MALBEC/CABERNET, BODEGA LA AZUL, "AZUL", VALLE DE UCO,

balanciado! elegant tannins create a glass of wine that is easy to drink yet robust in structure.

*FOURTH

ASADO BANDERITA ADOBADO
papas rellenas con chorizo, criollo especial
****2008 TANNAT, BODEGAS CARRAU, "AMAT", CERRO CHAPEU, URUGUAY
somewhere between stripped back & lean and rich & structured. friendly tannins with a little spice.
