Featured Music Pairing

Train - Save Me, San Francisco

When we look for music to pair along, we turn to the familiar and great vocals of Pat Monahan of the Superstar group – Train.  Train has long-delivered hit platinum records – but their current single “Hey, Soul Sister” is truly one of the biggest songs of the year and it’s infectious grooves and lyrics will get you going as the pot bubbles for the pasta!  Kick off your shoes, dance around the kitchen and enjoy life – LITV way!

Featured Wine Pairing

2007 Regusci Merlot

Rich, concentrated aromas of deep black plum and gingerbread, with a hint of black licorice and cinnamon. Vibrant cherry flavors on a full tilt youthful tannic structure…This merlot is packed with flavor and texture that has the durability of long term ageing. 

About Regusci

The stunning old stagecoach stop from the 1800’s is one of Napa’s true “ghost wineries”.  On any day, you can find owner Jim Regusci driving over the grounds on a tractor with winery-dog “Trixie” at his side.    FYI – if you’re in the know – Regusci is actually pronounced “Re-gu-shi”!
