Grilled Skirt Steak Salad with Rice Vermicelli Noodles, Carrots, Cucumber, Peanuts and Chili-Lime Dressing

September 3, 2024

This spicy, fragrant bowl is heaped with crisp vegetables and char-grilled skirt steak, perched on a bed of rice noodles finished with a piquant Vietnamese dressing and a shower of fresh herbs. Pair with your favorite Temecula Valley Chardonnay.

Ingredients

Marinade:
1/4 cup (60ml) soy sauce
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons (30ml) light brown sugar
1 tablespoon (15ml) fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon (15ml) finely grated peeled fresh ginger
1 tablespoon (15ml) toasted sesame oil
1 1/2 pounds (750g) skirt steak, cut against the grain in 4 equal pieces

Dressing:
1/4 cup (60ml) fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons (30ml) sweet chili sauce
1 tablespoon (15ml) fish sauce
1 tablespoon (15ml) soy sauce
1 teaspoon (5ml) sesame oil

Salad:
8 ounces (250g) rice vermicelli noodles
1 head butter lettuce, leaves washed
2 scallions, white and green parts sliced on the diagonal
1 large carrot, peeled and cut into matchsticks
1/2 English cucumber, seeded, cut into matchsticks
1 cup (240ml) bean sprouts
1/4 cup (60ml) chopped roasted salted peanuts
1 red jalapeño pepper, seeded, thinly sliced
1 cup (240ml) assorted fresh herbs (mint, cilantro, Thai basil)

Serves 4

Instructions

Whisk the marinade ingredients in a bowl. Place the skirt steak in a baking dish, pour the marinade over and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight, turning once or twice. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling.

Whisk the dressing ingredients in a small bowl.

Prepare the vermicelli rice noodles according to package instructions.
Prepare the grill for direct cooking over high heat (about 450°F/230°C). Remove the steaks from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the steaks over high heat, with the lid closed, until cooked to desired doneness, 4 to 6 minutes for medium-rare, turning once. Remove from the grill and let rest while you assemble the salad.

Line 4 serving bowls with large lettuce leaves (reserve the smaller leaves for another use). Divide the noodles between the bowls. Arrange the scallions, carrots, cucumber, and sprouts over the noodles, leaving a section clear for the meat. Drizzle the dressing over the salads.

Cut the meat across the grain into 1/4-inch (0.6cm) slices. Arrange the steak in the clear sections of the salads and drizzle any collected juices over the meat. Scatter the peanuts and jalapeño slices over the salads and generously garnish with the fresh herbs. Serve immediately.

Wines Suggested:

Wiens Family Cellars ~ 2022 Reserve Chardonnay – Opening note of tart lemon curd, followed by subtle notes of almond biscotti.

Europa Village ~ 2022 Late Harvest Chardonnay – Aromas of peach pie and candied orange.

Lorimar Winery ~ 2020 Chardonnay – This wine has delicious tasting notes and aromas.

Cheese and Salumi Board

August 2, 2024

If you’d rather spend more time dining than cooking and cleaning up, why not assemble an abundant cheese board that will take your evening from antipasto through dessert? Pair with your favorite Temecula Valley Rosé.

Ingredients

Nuts in Honey:

¼ cup (85 g) honey
3 tablespoons mixed toasted nuts (walnut pieces, toasted almonds, pistachios)

If the honey is stiff, put the jar in a saucepan of barely simmering water over low heat until the honey liquefies enough to pour. In a small serving bowl, combine the honey and the nuts.

Suggested Cheeses:

Laura Chenel Aged Crottin
Cowgirl Creamery Mt. Tam
Cypress Grove Truffle Tremor

Accompaniments:

Crackers and flatbreads
Sliced baguette
Prosciutto di Parma, thinly sliced
Sopressatta, thinly sliced
Black and green olives
Dried apricots, Medjool dates, and other dried California fruits
Roasted pistachios in shell

Instructions

Add what you love; omit what you don’t. It’s yours to compose. Good cheese counters typically have many selections, like truffled cheeses, luscious triple-cream cheeses, and mini cheeses meant for two. Add roasted nuts, dried fruits, condiments, and crackers. You can purchase mixed nuts in honey but making your own is a cinch.

Wine Suggestions

Thornton Winery ~ 2022 Grenache Rosé – Classic strawberry, light cherry and raspberry, and light spice

Wiens Cellars ~ 2023 Rosé of Sangiovese – This wine has juicy notes of fresh watermelon!

Danza del Sol Winery ~ 2023 Rosé of Grenache – This wine has delicious tasting notes of white cherry, strawberry, and rose petal

Grape Expectations: Temecula Valley’s 2024 Harvest Promises Quality

August 2, 2024

From regenerative agriculture dinners to grape stomps, explore how these SoCal wineries are approaching the 2024 harvest and engaging with the community along the way

As the summer heat peaks and the days start to shorten, the excitement in Temecula Valley’s vineyards is palpable. The annual grape harvest is approaching, promising another year of exceptional wines from this beloved Southern Californian wine region. We spoke to some folks deeply involved in Temecula Valley’s winemaking operations to get an insider’s look at how the harvest is shaping up, what makes this region so special, and how wine lovers can join in the celebrations.

Wilson Creek Winery: Embracing Nature’s Bounty

At Wilson Creek Winery, the anticipation for the harvest is building. “This is the second consecutive year of good winter and spring rains, which has supported a robust cover crop and boosted natural fertility,” says vineyard manager Greg Pennyroyal. Despite an unusually hot and humid spring and summer causing some mildew pressure, the team has applied lessons from the previous year to manage it successfully, including a series of raw milk applications. “Our plant sap data indicates that the grapes this year will have above-average complexity and density, leading to another banner year for great wine in Temecula.”

Picking Dates and Grape Varieties:
Wilson Creek is set to start picking Chardonnay on August 21, followed by Sauvignon Blanc and Muscat.

What Makes Temecula Valley Unique:
“Despite the heat, we are blessed with a reliable cool diurnal airflow from the ocean breeze in the afternoon and evening,” Pennyroyal explains. “This allows us to grow many varieties from Chardonnay to Tanat.” According to Pennyroyal, the Valley’s high-quality and reliable aquifer ensures consistency from vintage to vintage, and the European model of small, independently owned vineyards with their own harvest crews extends the harvest window, letting grapes reach the best balance between maturity and freshness.

Harvest Celebration Events:

Regenerative Agriculture Dinner: August 15 – Guests are invited to enjoy a three-course wine-paired dinner and the opportunity to participate in a discussion on regenerative agriculture with Pennyroyal, along with an exclusive barrel tasting.
Harvest Festival & Grape Stomp: October 27.

Lorimar Winery: Tradition Meets Modernity

Sara Cox, marketing director at Lorimar Winery, is optimistic about this year’s harvest. “This year’s harvest is shaping up to be quite promising, despite the challenges presented by higher humidity levels over the past 2-3 months,” she says. “The increased humidity has led to concerns such as powdery mildew, but our team is diligently managing these issues to ensure the health and quality of our grapes.”

Picking Dates and Grape Varieties:
Lorimar anticipates starting their harvest at the end of August or the beginning of September, with Viognier being the first grape variety to be picked, followed by lighter to medium-bodied reds like Sangiovese, Montepulciano, and Cabernet Franc.

What Makes Temecula Valley Unique:
“At Lorimar Winery, we pride ourselves on our commitment to bio-diverse farming practices. Unlike conventional farming, our approach enhances soil health and promotes a balanced ecosystem, which is crucial for the quality of our grapes,” says Cox. The harvest process at Lorimar blends tradition and modernity, utilizing state-of-the-art machines for efficiency and precision while hand-picking certain grapes to maintain meticulous care.

Harvest Celebration Events:

Annual Harvest Festival: September 29 – Celebrate with a grape stomp photo op, local vendors, food, live music, and activities for kids. Adult tickets are $20 and include a drink ticket, with discounts on food for pre-purchased tickets.

Cougar Vineyard and Winery: Harvesting Under the Stars

Rick Buffington, Winemaker at Cougar Vineyard and Winery, reports a heavy crop on all varieties this year. “Pinot Grigio will be first, and I’m thinking probably around the end of August.”

What Makes Temecula Valley Unique:
“It’s hot. We harvest around 2 am because of the heat and all by hand,” says Buffington, highlighting the unique challenges and practices in the region.

Consumer Participation:
Visitors can help with punch-downs depending on timing, and can taste just-picked grapes in the tasting room.

Bel Vino Winery: Managing the Elements

Jessy Hyle, general manager at Bel Vino Winery, shares insights on this year’s harvest: “The consistent warm summer days have made for the need for a bit more attention in the vineyard to ensure even development for the berries, but also monitoring heat damage and dehydration,” he says. “The weather this spring, with all the rain we had, has made for a later harvest, one to two weeks behind where we normally are. It’s been a more hands-on approach this year due to the increased weather changes.”

Picking Dates and Grape Varieties:
Erick Erno from Cali Wine & Vine notes that picking will likely start at the end of August with white wine grapes like Muscat, Sauvignon Blanc, or Viognier, followed by Chardonnay, and then red wine grapes.

What Makes Temecula Valley Unique:
“There are all the different varieties from regions all around the world. A lot of Spanish varieties do well here. Because of being more of a desert-type climate, we get a lot more concentrated notes of the fruit,” says Erno. “The best wine is yet to come. I am always excited for the future wines to come.”

Leoness Cellars: Continuous Harvest Magic

Tim Kramer, winemaker at Leoness Cellars, is looking forward to a great harvest. “So far, everything looks really good,” he says. “We’re a little behind where we’d be in a typical year due to spring and early summer weather, but that’s not a bad thing. Crop size and set looks very good as well. I’m looking forward to a really nice harvest.”

Picking Dates and Grape Varieties:
Kramer expects to start their harvest toward the end of August, beginning with Viognier, Sauvignon Blanc, and Muscat Canelli.

What Makes Temecula Valley Unique:
“We grow so many different grape varieties in the Temecula Valley, so when harvest starts, usually around the middle of August for us, it doesn’t stop,” says Kramer. “There are no lulls waiting for the next variety to ripen because a new one is always ready to go after the last one.”

Harvest Celebration Events:

Leoness Cellars hosts a harvest celebration where guests can watch the harvest of Estate Cabernet Sauvignon grapes up close while enjoying great food and wine. Details on time and date will be available soon on the Leoness website.

Robert Renzoni Vineyards: A Season of Promise

Olivia Bue, Winemaker at Robert Renzoni Vineyards, is excited about this year’s harvest. “This harvest is looking great. Yields are average, which is the perfect balance for quality and flavor concentration,” she says. “We had some solid winter and spring rain which luckily ended before summer (unlike last year). Hopefully, we continue to have a rain-free summer through early fall to avoid any possible mildew issues on the fruit. 2024 is looking like a superior vintage for Temecula Valley wine country.”

Picking Dates and Grape Varieties:
“We will likely harvest our estate Pinot Grigio the week of August 19th, which is always our first vineyard picked to kick off the harvest season,” says Bue.

Harvest Celebration Events:

Bue says their wine club harvest event is the most anticipated event of the year at the winery. “Our members join the winemaking team for the evening where we demonstrate firsthand the crushing process right in front of their eyes,” she says. “Robert [Renzoni] and I answer questions, explain our unique winemaking techniques, and display the crushing and destemming process on our crush pad. It’s an evening to remember for our Vino Famiglia.”

Sure, you’ve reached for a bottle of crisp white wine, rosé, bubbly, or even a cold beer when temperatures rise. But if you’re a wine lover, you haven’t lived until you’ve sipped on a chilled red. In Southern California, the Temecula Valley is a vibrant wine region that boasts an exciting wine scene, perfect for warm weather sipping—year-round! As things heat up outdoors, our taste buds crave refreshing wines, and Temecula Valley’s unique climate and diverse terroir deliver these in spades, not to mention the perfect setting in which to sip these selections.

The concept of chilling a red wine may be unfamiliar to some, but certain red varieties, when slightly cooled, reveal enhanced fruit flavors, bright acidity, and an even juicier finish, making them ideal for summer. Temecula’s passionate winemakers have embraced this trend, producing an impressive array of chillable red wines that blend juicy fruit flavors and hints of earthiness, perfect for those warm, lackadaisical afternoons.

Wiens Cellars Dolcetto, $38
This Dolcetto is a Temecula Valley gem and perfect for summer enjoyment. Composed of 100% Waxman Vineyard Dolcetto, the wine is aged for 14 months in a combination of American and French oak, 25% of which is new. With a modest alcohol content of 13.6% and just a touch of residual sugar (0.2%), Dolcetto offers a delightful balance of flavors, like red candy and cardamom, with balanced acidity, and a hint of cinnamon bark on the finish.

Dolcetto is a fantastic chillable red. Pop it in the fridge for 20 minutes to let its fruit and violet notes shine, creating a refreshing and vibrant drink for warm days. Pair it with pizza, pasta, mushrooms, or grilled meats for an effortlessly cool summer meal.

Europa Village En Vie Red Blend, $46
This is a bold and luxurious red that’s perfect for summer. A blend of classic Rhône Valley grapes Syrah, Grenache, and Mourvèdre, this full-bodied wine has a deep color and flavors of plum and blackberry, with hints of black pepper and huckleberry.

What makes En Vie perfect for summer is how flexible it can be, depending on how you serve it and with what. Chill it down to soften the powerful flavors, making it a refreshing and sophisticated option for warm evenings. “This is full bodied and powerful enough to pair with red meats and game,” says Matt Rice, director of winery operations at Europa Village. “But chilling it brings out a softer, more gentle feel to the fruit that further increases its versatility.” When chilled, pair it with chilled steak tartare; when serving it cellar temperature, try it with beef brisket for an unforgettable meal.

This wine is all about fun and refreshment. It’s bursting with bright red cherry notes, lively acidity, and a super soft finish, making it the perfect light red wine to chill and enjoy on those hot summer days.

Pop it in the fridge for a bit before serving and let the flavors come alive. Pair it with smoked honey BBQ pulled pork and blue cheese coleslaw sandwiches on toasted Hawaiian rolls for a mouthwatering summer feast.

South Coast Winery Romanza, $20
This is the ultimate chillable red for your summer adventures.

This wine is a vibrant medley of blackberry, strawberry, and blueberry flavors, accented by delicate floral and spice notes. Lightly sweet and pleasantly tart, Romanza is perfect over ice, with sliced fruit, or on its own.

What makes Romanza an exceptional summer choice is its low tannin expression and big fruit aromas, which become incredibly refreshing when chilled. Whether you’re grilling hamburgers, enjoying carne asada, digging into pizza, savoring BBQ chicken, or having a steak salad, Romanza is the perfect pairing for your summer meals.

Wilson Creek Winery VS Cabernet Sauvignon-Zinfandel, $45

A summer in Temecula Valley wouldn’t be complete without at least a few bottles of Wilson Creek’s VS Cabernet-Zinfandel blend. 50% Cabernet Sauvignon and 50% Zinfandel, this wine somehow manages to be at once full-bodied, fruit-forward, and light on its feet.

The VS Cabernet-Zinfandel is an ideal chillable red for summer. By slightly delaying the harvest to increase grape ripeness, some natural grape sweetness is retained, making the wine as easy-drinking as it gets. When chilled, the concentrated flavors become even more refreshing, perfect for warm summer days. Pair this versatile wine with Texas-style barbecue brisket for an unbeatable outdoor feast.
