Our host is serving mini-lasagnas in a walnut and ricotta cheese
sauce. Any suggestions on what type of wine I should bring to go with
it? Thanks for your help!


This may be odd, but I would drink an Orvietto.

A very good suggestion, I wish I'd thought of it.

To me it is a steely, oily

Sherry is a no brainer with the nuts,

Try it! It's a classic. The spanish often serve a Fino as a drink with
Tapas (right Santiago?) and these often include nuts (mostly salted
almonds
iirc, but walnuts too).

but Orvietto will rock..

Not sure what that means, I prefer my wines to stay in the glass in a
liquid kind of way.

will also work as an aperitif.
Right.

Hi Ian,

Sorry for my americanisms. I forgot that this an internaional group. I do
like fino with walnuts. What I meant about no brainer is the affintiy is
obvious.
