My husband has started his own urban vineyard in our front yard. It is a very exciting prospect as we both love wine and vineyards and are having our front yard re-landscaped to accomodate this new look. Our neighbors who don’t know what’s going on probably think we’re just planting sticks in a mound, but when it’s all grown in, it will look beautiful and very different for an urban neighborhood.
Chris has been documenting his planting progress in in-depth detail for anyone else wanting to plant their own urban vineyard on his blog, Urban Vining. Along with documenting this progress, he blogs on other wine topics including the article below that talks about good red wine pairings for fish. Read on and bon appetite!
Something Fishy, Red Wine Comes – May 7, 2010 3:36 pm by Chris Henry at UrbanVining.com
White wines have just not resonated with me yet. When it came to fish for dinner, in most cases, I just simply had water until after dinner when I’d look forward to a glass or two of red on it’s own. Occasionally I would try some lighter reds with some fish like salmon.
Well, for those like me, this article from Snooth provides some background on the topic as well as offers some recommended reds to pair with various fish. Read the comments from subscribers for additional suggestions. One recommendation I would suggest, that worked for me in the past was Valpolicella with Salmon.
