Try These Seven Wines For A Seven Fishes Feast

 We have a tradition of cooking lobster on Christmas Eve. It started a long time ago, when my father changed a Ford Fiero to a lobster he offered to deliver six in December. 24. We usually add a few other fish, but I've never had a classic Seven fish party. However, it is on my wish list. In the meantime, I'm inspired by two of my favorite local food vendors, Fish and the Modern Butcher, who collaborated on creating a fish board with seven options, perfect for an intimate Christmas Eve. It is also not too late, anyone could replicate it at the last minute, using prepared food.

As I daydream of one day attending a big party, or at least reuniting with my relatives once again for Christmas celebrations, I asked Andrew Lohse, a CMS certified Sommelier with Colangelo & Partners, for some suggestions for the wines to pair with a seven-course pool meal. Honestly, most of these selections are versatile enough to go with multiple courses, so if your dinner is as small as mine, you can get away with just two or three.

a glass of bright rose with mountains in the background.

A nice Italian sparkling rosé would be combined with any fish dish. TRENTODOC

Cesarini Sforza's classic method sparkling wine Trentodoc Rosé is flexible enough to match anything on this list, but sings with fresh oysters. Made with a selection of Pinor Noir grapes, this bubbly from a trend region of northern Italy is a nice pink color with fine and persistent bubbles. With an aroma of freshly picked blackberries and blueberries, along with notes of ripe cherries and marzipan on the palate, this sparkling wine beautifully complements the delicate flavors of oysters (SRP 2 25)

The October challenge: us Chardonnay to drink this fall

Enjoy with a wine upgrade this holiday season

Shedding light on Trudon's rich history

Shrimp Cocktail: Oak Farm Fiano 2019

Need a conversation piece? Fiano is a variety from southern Italy, and when grown in Lodi, California., by Oak Farm, shows aromas of melon, apricot and pecans with butter. It is bright and fresh with vibrant notes of sea stone and orange peel, with a persistent finish. These bold flavors should withstand the sweet cocktail sauce well. WEP encryption level)

Lobster tail: Trapiche medal Chardonnay 2017

The historic Mendoza Trapiche producer, founded in 1883, offers a classic bridge between new and Old World chardonnay styles, with a crunchy, textured, citrus and melon palate. It will go well with lobster in all its forms: poached, boiled, grilled lobster tail, or even lobster salad. WEP encryption level)

This nice and powerful wine is excellent for a pasta course, but it would also go with butter ... [ + ] ORNELLAIA

Spaghetti clams: Ornellaia Poggio alle Magze Dell'ornellaia 2019

One of Italy's most innovative white wines, the iconic Poggio alle Gazze from Tuscan producer Ornellaia is a white blend dominated by Sauvignon Blanc, with touches of Vermentino, Verdicchio and Viognier. Powerful, deep, rich and with complex layers of citrus, tropical fruits, salty herbs and a honeyed minerality, this wine elevates even the most humble seafood pasta, and is a special way to celebrate the holidays.

Grilled Branzino: poem (Quinta do Louridal) Alvarinho 2017

Throughout Portugal, seafood is the dominant cuisine, so naturally many of the country's wines make a perfect pairing. This elevated expression of Vinho Verde would be charming with a scaly white fish like branzino. This wine is from Monção E Melgaço, a region with a strong oceanic influence in the northernmost part of Vinho Verde, across the Miño River from Spain. The proximity of the Atlantic Ocean gives the wines a crisp minerality and bright citrus flavors, making them the perfect pairing for seafood. WEP encryption level)

a bottle of enRoute pinot noir with a glass of wine casting a shadow.

Pinot noir can also be paired with rich fish such as swordfish or even halibut. Data encoding method:

Grilled salmon: EnRoute "Les Pommiers" Pinot Noir, Russian River Valley 2019

Salmon is one of the few fish capable of withstanding a red wine, and when you're looking for a delicate red, Pinot Noir usually offers. The EnRoute Les Pommiers from Sonoma provides fruity and acidic freshness to cut through fatty fish, backed by a delicate structure and earthy that does not overwhelm the salmon.

a bottle of Roederer roots Brut wine and a glass of wine.

Pair a sparkling wine with any fried fish dish and you are unlikely to be disappointed. ROEDERER

Fried Calamari: Finca Roederer Brut Rose

Fried food combined with something fizzy, like the Roederer Estate Brut Rosé, is an indulgent delight. This wine, full and round with fine persistent bubbles, is made with an extra measure of Pinot Noir, which brings elegance and austerity, balancing very well with the delicate fruitiness of Chardonnay.

Halladay Survived Plane Crash -- Could Boaters Have Saved His Life?

 An autopsy on Roy Halladay, the retired Major League Baseball star who died last fall in the crash of his light sports plane, shows that the former athlete survived the accident in the Gulf of Mexico and died from drowning and blunt force trauma, according to an autopsy report. That Halladay, 41, did not die on impact but lived long enough for him to drown should prompt a reflection on the behaviour of boaters who arrived at the scene with cameras rolling but did not appear to have investigated whether the plane's pilot could have been rescued. The video shows that at least three ships were very close to the barely submerged plane some time before the Coast Guard arrived. A video shot by one of the boaters just before the crash, Halladay's plane is seen maneuvering at low altitude before it hits the water. The alarmed men then accelerate to the scene.

All-Electric Plane Crash Lands In Blow To Norway's Aviation Strategy

 A big question mark hangs over Norway's desire to pursue electric aircraft after an all-electric two-seater plane was forced to crash into a lake earlier this week. The aircraft, owned by the Norwegian airport operator Avinor, was being used to showcase the opportunities of electric power in aviation. Norwegian media have published photos showing the plane half submerged in water. Avinor CEO Dag Falk-Petersen was piloting the plane, along with Secretary of State Aase Marthe J. Horrigmo. He was also not injured in the incident. The plane took off from Arendal Airport, about 285 km (177 miles) southwest of the Norwegian capital, Oslo. Falk-Petersen estimated that they were traveling at a speed of about 70 km / h (43 mph) when they hit the water.

New Study Finds These Tropical Fish Can Live To Be Over 80 Years Old

 How long do fish live? 10 years? Twenty? Try more than 80 years, according to new research on snappers. Before now, the oldest known snapper was recorded at age 60, two decades younger than the findings recently published in the Journal Coral Reefs. Does this twenty-year age difference matter? According to fisheries scientist and lead author of the study, Dr. Brett Taylor, it matters quite a lot. Snappers serve as an important food source worldwide. Despite the importance of snapper, the global snapper fishery is largely poorly managed. This, combined with the high market value of some snapper species, led the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to officially label red snapper as "at risk" for illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing and market fraud in 2015.
