5/5/17 FRIDAY WINE CLUB
PAIRINGS FOR BRAISED BEEF SHORT RIBS:
¡¤        
A deep, hearty red
wine will compliment this dish nicely – Try a Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet
Franc or a Zinfandel.
What To Drink With The Short Ribs:
 
 Recently I had the
pleasure of meeting Felipe Stahlschmidt, chief winemaker at Pascual
Toso, one of the oldest wineries in Argentina.  For over 125 years,
the winery has been producing high-quality, terroir-driven wines, both white
and red.  Over a dinner paired with several of them, Felipe talked about
the winery's commitment to making premium wines from the best vineyards in
Mendoza.  For these short ribs I am recommending three of the Pascual Toso
Malbecs which I tasted and thought were exceptional wines.  All of them,
while unique in their own way, have distinct herbal (thyme,
mint, rosemary) savory qualities to back up the big, powerful Malbec
fruit on both the nose and the palate.  They are an ideal match with the
earthy, rich and slightly sweet flavors in the short rib dish. Following are
the wines, along with descriptions from the winery.  These wines are
readily available, just go to www.wine-searcher.com to
find out where.

Luscious, melt-in-the-mouth short ribs call for robust reds.

Pascual Toso Malbec Reserve ($19.99 Total Wine)
 
When in the mid 1880s Pascual Toso set out towards Argentina from
its home town, Canale D¡¯Alba, in Piamonte, Italy, he could not have imagined
that he would become the founder of a winery, which is today one of the oldest
and most prestigious wineries in Argentina.  
When he arrived in Argentina, he settled in Mendoza. As he had been
closely involved in the development of his family wine business in Piedmont, he
promptly saw the promising future for winemaking in the region and decided to
use his expertise. Thus, in 1890, Pascual Toso established his first winery in
San José, Guaymallén.   At the beginning
of the 20th century, he decided to expand his business and acquired vineyards
in Maipú. At his estate ¡°Las Barrancas¡±, he built another winery, ¡°Las
Barrancas¡± (small Canyon) which is dedicated to producing and growing the
finest grapes.   In 2001, the Bodega hired
as winemaker consultant to Mr. Paul Hobbs for a new high quality wine project.
He has been working head to head with our chief winemaker, Rolando Luppino, on
the development of premium and super-premium wines. Today, Pascual Toso still
makes wines of high quality under the most exigent procedures and rules. The
Trophy for Best Argentine Producer awarded by the IWSC (London) in 2007
reflects this commitment to quality.
