    Comments Off on Only The Best – La Quercia Berkshire Prosciutto

    Considered the best American cured prosciutto, La Quercia Berkshire Prosciutto is a delight for any cured meat fan. The pig itself is a purebred Berkshire pig raised in Iowa with no GMO or antibiotics.

    Amarone, or less succinctly, Amarone della Valpolicella, is a wine from the northern Italian region of Veneto comprised most commonly of (the grapes) Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara, although some other indigenous grape varieties from the region (such as Corvinone, Oseleta and Croatina) do find themselves in the mix, as it were.
