Grilled Tuscan Style T Bone Steak
The official grilling season has began. Here is a delicious recipe to enjoy this summer and all the sun filled fun days that are just around the corner. We recommend pairing this with Buehler Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine is brimming with fruit aromas and flavors. With notes of plums, blackberry, and black currant. This wine is full-bodied on the palate that will pair perfectly with the Tuscan Grilled Steak. All around yum!!!
