Italian Sausage Bake<\/p><\/div>\n

“My husband Andy and I tried a new food and wine pairing for dinner tonight. I cooked a dish called Italian Sausage Bake, a delicious one-pot meal from Katie\u2019s Cucina. The recipe is available online<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The dish contained plenty of vegetables (onion, bell peppers, potatoes, grape tomatoes) and seasonings, complemented by spicy Italian sausage. We paired the meal with a Merlot from ONEHOPE. The wine was dry and smooth, with notes of cherry and black pepper and\u00a0a tangible oak flavor.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
