Just got back from Palm Springs. Spent a few days there with my sister, but had a good time anyway. ;^D
We had leftovers last night. I guilt tripped her into cooking (I'd cooked the past 3 nights) and she opted to create a stir fry out of the last of the lamb I'd grilled a few days ago. I guess it was Asian style, but I've never had (or seen) lamb in an Asian restaurant.
A neighbor had dropped by earlier with a gift bottle of wine. It was Riunite Lambrusco - something I hadn't tasted in many years. I realize that this isn't considered "serious" wine, but it has its place - and arguably on a slightly higher tier than white Zinfandel.
The wine was quite pleasant served chilled: soft, fruity, a little fizzy and interestingly yeasty.
To make a long story short, it went quite well with the stir fry. Even better after I added a bit of a newly discovered hot sauce (Waha Wera Habanero) from New Zealand!
I can see trying this again - perhaps with Kung Pao chichen or the like. Spicy Asian cuisine is a tough one to match with wine, but I may have stumbled onto something here.
