The stock of wine in the basement has finally dwindled to a few remaining bottles of Michigan wine bought several years ago during many wine tours around the state. What a nice surprise to find a 2005 Dolcetto by Ciccone Vineyards in Suttons Bay.
The occasion to open the wine was a fun get-together with a friend for dinner sans husbands. While the kids ran around playing, we reconnected over a nicely aged wine, reflected on the challenges of child-rearing and grimaced at the thought that her oldest and my youngest will be entering Kindergarten this fall.
We paired the Dolcetto with yummy Al Dente' pasta topped with Marinara sauce by Monique Deschaine of Whitmore Lake. It was a lovely evening with a good friend, good wine and good food. Bon Appétit! ~ Sharon
