Who the Hell is Mary?

Regularly $19.99, it was offered (and accepted) at $17.99 when Danielle put together the mystery case.

code: 862003

It even includes a vine cutting on the bottle. 
Lovely depth.  We have always liked Montepulciano and this one was especially nice … particularly after having been open for about 2 hours.

I’d call it full bodied and robust. VERY full glasses were savoured and sipped. Before and during dinner.

They say where there is a vineyard – there is civilization.  So I figured I had to be somewhat civilized about the way I did the lamb roast.  Just a little guy, weighing in at slightly over a pound.  So the civilized part was simply salt/pepper/fresh rosemary and olive oil. Roasted veggies were leek, potatoes, Japanese Eggplant, yellow and orange pepper and some onion thrown in.  Anna Olsen provided the inspiration for the date/goat cheese/pistachio salsa.
