Tuna Salad on Avocado Toast
As the weather turns, we move to lighter fare. This is a great lunch option and also works well as an easy first course for a dinner party (when we get back to those). Our fresh and zippy North Coast Sauvignon Blanc cuts through the density of the tuna and richness of the avocado creating a wonderful harmony on the palate. This can also be prepped well in advance so you can grab from the fridge when you are ready.
