rscThis year's installment:
Smoked mussels
Assorted cheeses and crackers
Rack of lamb with rosemary, thyme & garlic
Oven-roasted potatoes
Sautéed Brussels sprouts with balsamic vinegar, mustard, and maple syrup
Iggy's sourdough rolls
Green salad with red wine vinaigrette
Oxford Landing Shiraz (South Australia), 2012
Pear and blackberry tart
Gil's Sweet Blush Zin, 2010
This is essentially the same rack of lamb recipe I used three years ago, but I planned to cook it a little longer this time, and it came out perfectly.
Our friend Gil, who makes his own wine, always brings a few bottles to our summer party, some of which get consumed at the time, and some not. Since we had this bottle, we decided to vary our routine and have a dessert wine instead of tea. It's very nice.
