Oven-Roasted Haddock with Pesto and New York Hothouse Tomatoes
Kelby Russell, winemaker at Red Newt Cellars, has traveled the world and worked multiple harvests in both hemispheres. His Dry Rosé is a stunning, brilliant pink color with notes of passion fruit and green mango. Fish paired with green herbaceous flavors = delicious!
