With my steak dinner we had a Gehringer Brothers 2009 Cuvee Noir wine. DELICIOUS!
I'd picked it up at the vineyard a few years ago as a 'test'. It was a perfect bottle for my palate. It is a blended red whine, not too sweet, not too dry. Berry flavours, probably would be good with a sharper cheese.
I'm going to try buy it again.

Peppercorn Steak Dinner
When I finished my exams last week I wanted to have a special meal to celebrate. Mum had steak thawed, so we decided at the last minute to create a peppercorn steak dinner.
We didn't have all the ingredients, but that was ok, cuz what we had in the end was great!
We cooked the steak in some butter, and then removed the meat and added clotted cream to the leftover butter. I had ground a bunch of peppercorns with a little mortar and pestle, and we added that to the mix. Sounds strange, but it worked really well!
We served it with baked potato (with sour cream and bacon bits), and then some usual green veggies.
All in all, a wonderful meal to celebrate exams being done!
