Chill the Russian River Rosé, dust off your Wine Bible and break out the game night wine snacks, because Far Niente Winemaker Nicole Marchesi and Hosted at Home emcee Todd Elliott are gearing up for another Hosted at Home Trivia Night. To ensure you’re prepped and ready for June's virtual game night, we have one of our most versatile red oak plank grilled flank steak recipes, below, which will partner beautifully with the warm-weather wines heading your way, the 2019 Far Niente Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon and the just-released 2021 EnRoute Rosé of Pinot Noir, “Facile à Boire." We're so excited to share these two special releases with you. They're two of our most limited-production wines, and they taste even better when paired with friendly competition! Which is excellent news, because Hosted at Home host Todd Elliot is planning to test you general wine knowledge and your Far Niente Family of Wineries & Vineyards IQ during our June 10 virtual event.
