  • 1/2 cup cup dry red wine, such as Côtes du Rhône
  • 2 tsps tomato paste
  • 2 (15-ounce) cans cannellini beans, rinsed and drained

  • 1 tsp balsamic vinegar
Directions

Tasting notes: This recipes pairs so well with the earthiness in Pinot noir and enhances the bright red fruit in the Mendocino Ridge Pinot.

Serena's tips: Use 1 sprig of thyme and cut mushrooms smaller. Good quality balsamic is important and we added a little bit more than what was called for.
