Hahn Estates Pinot Noir Paired With Phil’s Famous Cioppino
The Best of Monterey from the Land and the Sea
Two celebrated Monterey family businesses have come together to promote an unforgettable food and wine experience. Match the award-winning Pinot Noir from Hahn Estates and Phil’s Fish Market’s famous Cioppino and what do you get? CiopPinot!
CiopPinot! combines the natural affinity Pinot Noir has for Cioppino, the rustic fish stew made popular in Italian cuisine. Hahn Estates Monterey County Pinot Noir is from estate vineyards in the celebrated Santa Lucia Highlands appellation. It has the structure and depth, along with a rich, silky texture, to complement the bold flavors of Phil’s Fish Market’s signature dish: his famous Cioppino.
"The purity and character of our Pinot Noir makes it a perfect match with a wide variety of foods, especially Phil’s fabulous Cioppino,” said Bill Leigon, Hahn Estates President. CiopPinot! is perfect for fall/winter and holiday entertaining.
Phil Di Girolamo’s Fish Market will freeze the freshly cooked Cioppino overnight and ship the next day (along with Hahn Estates wines), to order go to www.philsfishmarket.com. For more information about the perfect wines for the meal, visit www.hahnestates.com.
About Hahn Estates:
Nicolaus (“Nicky”) and Gaby Hahn discovered a love for California wines in the mid-1970s. A two-year search led them to the breathtaking beauty and ideal growing conditions of Monterey County where they subsequently purchased two ranches on which to plant vineyards and start a winery. Their first wines, released under the Smith & Hook label, received numerous awards and critical acclaim. In 1991 Nicky decided to create a new wine brand named Hahn Estates. The Hahn brand was created to showcase supple, accessible, and attractively priced wines from the family's Monterey County vineyards. In German, “Hahn” means “Rooster” and a rooster embellishes the Hahn Estates label, honoring the Hahn Family’s European heritage. www.hahnestates.com
About Phil’s Fish Market and Eatery:
Phil Di Girolamo opened the popular Phil’s Fish Market and Eatery in 1982 a few doors down from its current location in Moss Landing, California. His original plan was to sell fresh-caught fish, but it wasn’t too long before he added a few tables and began to serve customers a small lunch menu including his grandmother’s Cioppino. Today, Phil’s Fish Market and Eatery draws thousands of customers per week from up and down the Monterey Peninsula and as far away as San Jose and Hollister. He has been featured on “The Food Network” and in Sunset Magazine. www.philsfishmarket.com
