Food and Wine on Pine

Food and Wine on Pine

The hubster and I enjoyed going to the Food and Wine on Pine last weekend.  The food was amazing and the wine was very diverse which was a lot of fun!  We tried some organic wines, two different Pinot Grigios (my current favorite) and a Sauvignon Blanc.  We didn't venture into the land of red wine due to the scorching heat.  Light, crisp, minerally and chilled wine was the order of the day!  Paired with grouper tacos, cheese danishes, tater tots, fried green tomatoes and chocolate bak lava was paired lovingly with our wine!
We found a cute little olive oil store that, as it turns out, sells our favorite kind of cheese - Drunken Goat Cheese! 
If you haven't tried it before, it's not creamy like the traditional goat's cheese.  It's a semi-hard cheese that has been soaked in a red wine brine.  The wine infuses the goat's cheese and it melts in your mouth!  Delicious!
We grabbed our last glass of wine for the day, bought a little ciabatta loaf and munched on bread, cheese and wine.  Does it get better than that?!
