pairingSalmon
A fish oily enough to take a red wine, and in Oregon the pairing is local logic rather than theory — the fish and the pinot come from the same watershed.
How it is done Tradition
Grilled over alder, or roasted. The oil in the flesh and the char off the fire both find something to do with a light red.
