So many of us are enjoying wonderful white wines at this time of the year! Our spring shipments to both our La Familia and GlenLyon wine clubs included Chardonnay, which is a beautiful pairing with this Smoked Salmon Spread recipe. One of our Wine Room managers, Nancy Fine, has altered this recipe from San Francisco A La Carte. It is easy and fabulous! In Nancy’s words’, “This hors d’oeuvre is a hit every time!”
