Pairing Ideas: Mission food pairing is simple because this wine has such an extensive and food-friendly profile. That said, when serving Mission wine, you want to go Mediterranean. Paella, fideuà, churros, gazpacho, moussaka, lasagna, risotto, or polenta, are some of the sample dishes that match divinely with Mission wine. Also complement the wine with a fatty, oily fish, such as salmon or tuna, goose or chicken, and seasonal vegetables. Spread a bit of olive oil on the veggies and put them on the grill. Let them cook until they become slightly blackened. Then, remove them, and serve them along with pan-fried salmon and a Mission wine. This organic, natural yeast whole cluster fermentation red is meant to be drunk now style. I'd suggest grabbing two bottles.
