Montes Sauvignon Blanc
Chef Sam Says...
A clear, crispy and fruity wine with light yellow-green color, bright and transparent. Selected grapes picked to show the best varietal aromas and fruit. Extremely attractive tropical fruits and grassy due to the cool Casablanca climate. A fresh, crispy light, happy wine to the palate!

Cooking Tips of the Month







Believe it or not...
Steaks should be at room temperature before grilling. Do not cook if the meat is frozen or chilled. Once the steak is cooked, it is important to let it sit for a few minutes before slicing.
Here's why...
During the cooking process, the meat proteins constrict and essentially squeeze out their juices. Letting meat sit and rest after cooking partially reverses this process. If you let your steak rest for 5 minutes on a separate plate, the liquid should redistribute throughout the meat. The meat ends up retaining more flavor and will be juicier. Cover it with some tin foil to keep it warm.
