Wine Tip
muskateller
A light salad begs for a young, equally light wine with a decent amount of sweetness. Muskateller works well with the intensity of the blue cheese and its elderberry aromas are ideal for summer.
Step 1
Roughly chop walnuts. Thinly slice green onions. Halve cherry tomatoes. Cut bell pepper into thin strips.
