Pairing Notes: Filets are luxuriously tender cuts of meat, and a perfect match for Mariah’s soft, silky tannins. The mushrooms bring out the wine’s earthy notes, while the seared steak accentuates the bright-red fruit.
Chef’s Tip: We recommend reducing the amount of Pinot noir to 1 cup. Also feel free to skip the bacon; the recipe will still be delicious.
