menu and wine pairings



Lobster and Lemon-Orange Salad
Pizza Rustica
Eggplant-Parmesan Timbales
Caponata-Style Escarole and Cod
Rum Babas with Peaches

WINE Given the savory flavors in this meal--particularly the sharp Mediterranean accents in the escarole-and-cod caponata--you'll want to serve a bright palate-cleansing dry white for balance. Italy offers a wealth of choices. For a regional match, pour a southern Italian white, such as the 1997 Mastroberardino Greco di Tufo or the 1997 Regaleali Bianco. Alternatively, try an Italian Pinot Grigio, such as the 1998 Campanile.
