Manhattan Style Gnocchi with Pink Sauce is a unique dish you can personalize to your own taste, best enjoyed with a glass of Mullan Road Cellars Red Blend. manhattan style gnocchi | superman cooksHomemade Gnocchi with fresh tomato sauce is a family favorite at our house. Whether they are homemade or store-bought, there is something about the texture and bite of this pillowy-soft potato pasta that we all love.
manhattan style gnocchi | superman cooksWhen our friends at Mullan Road Cellars asked us to create a recipe pairing for their incredible Red Blend, we both agreed that a pasta dish was the way to go. It would definitely be a good complement this unique blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc. But Keith wanted to step it up a bit, to pay homage to this fantastic wine. Inspired by some of our favorite Manhattan restaurant meals, he created a dish combining our love for fresh tomato sauce AND creamy carbonara; one you could mix together to create an amazing, memorable bite.manhattan style gnocchi | superman cooks
Mullan Road Cellars was founded in 2012 by Dennis Cakebread, of Napa Valley’s Cakebread Cellars winery. A forty-year veteran of the wine trade, Mr. Cakebread embarked on a mission to make world-class Washington state wine embodying the rich history and terroir of the Northwest. This Red Blend offers the concentrated flavors of blackberry, black currant and dark cherry with a touch of spice. It is smooth and balanced, suitable for a special occasion or a simple weeknight meal.
