2 yummy bottles of wine for that special dinner:

1. Seghesio family vineyards 2007 Arneis Russian River Valley
   "Aromas of pear cobbler. Bright fruit tones balanced by crisp, lemony acidity with ripe green apple and honeydew flavors persist. Medium bodied with lingering finish. Mild cheeses (brie), sushi, risotto, seafood, spicy Thai cuisine, grilled vegetables and fruit accented salads. 750ml."

2. Catena Alta 2005 Argentinian Malbec
   93 points from the Wine Spectator: "Very concentrated, with dark fig and currant paste notes, but it's also pure and driven, with intense mocha, bittersweet cocoa and melted licorice notes that stretch out the long, polished finish. Really gorgeous for its density and mouthfeel. Drink now through 2013."
