At what temperature should I serve Sparkling Shiraz?

Posted by admin on January 2, 2009 under shiraz

Never tried it before and I wondered what is the recommended serving temperature?

Sparkling Shiraz is best served at "cellar temperature" which is in the mid 50s. Too chilled and the flavor is missing something. Too warm and the sparkle doesn't stay as crisp. It's ok to keep it in the fridge for chilling, but if it's been in there too long, take it out about a half hour before serving.

What is the difference between Shiraz and Syrah red wine?

Posted by admin on December 27, 2008 under shiraz

Thank you for all of these great answers. I am just getting into wine, so I really had no clue.

Shiraz or Syrah is a variety of grape used in wine. The names are interchangeable. It is called Syrah in France and most often in the United States. In South Africa, Australia, and Canada it is most commonly known as Shiraz. In Australia it used to be called Hermitage up to the late 1980s. It should not be confused with Petite Sirah, a synonym for Durif, which is a different type of grape. It got its name from Shiraz–the city of flowers, wine and poetry in Persia/Iran–in the heart of an ancient winemaking region

Filet Mignon Garlic Toast (this is a weight watcher recipe)
1 sprays cooking spray
8 medium garlic clove(s), peeled (or to taste)
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
3/4 tsp table salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 1/2 Tbsp parsley, fresh, finely minced
2 pound raw lean beef tenderloin, trimmed and tied (from butcher)
24 oz French bread, cut into sixty four 1/3-inch-thck sliceCoat a large roasting pan with cooking spray. Set pan on middle rack in oven and then preheat oven to 425ºF.
In a small bowl, combine garlic, oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper and parsley; mash to a fine paste using back of a wooden spoon (or you can use a mortar and pestle). Set aside about 1/3 of garlic paste for use on the meat (the other 2/3 will be for the toasts).
Rinse beef and pat dry with paper towels. Rub about 1/3 of garlic paste on meat. Place meat in preheated roasting pan and cook about 22 minutes for medium rare or 24 minutes for medium.
Remove meat from oven and place on a cutting board. Loosely cover meat with aluminum foil and let stand 15 to 20 minutes (meat will continue to cook slightly). Reduce oven temperature to 350ºF.
Meanwhile, spread tops of bread slices with garlic paste; place in a single layer on baking sheets. Bake until slightly toasted, about 5 to 7 minutes.
Remove strings from meat and slice against the grain into 32 very thin pieces; slice each piece in half (to yield 64 pieces total). Place a slice of meat on each garlic toast and serve. Yields 2 pieces per serving.
