Ok, so on to pairing. It was very interesting to me that my bisque paired ... ... well with the bisque.- The muscadet was surprisingly good with the bisque, and a bad pairing for thermidor.- The Peller Estates wine really taught us both a lesson.

So you can follow it on the other threads, but I was supposed to fly into New ... also hints that it could be muscadet, but that bottle was wrong and it was too bright and forward. Turns out it was a bone-dry riesling from Greg's birth state of Michigan. Greg said he had planned to have it with the earlier dinner, but would have brought some... Read More
