Grilled Filet Mignon with Portabello Rosemary Cream
by Greg Flores

Tender filet mignon is grilled to perfection and served with a luxurious cream sauce infused with Bargetto Reserve Merlot, Portobello mushrooms, fresh rosemary, garlic, and shallots. The rich, velvety sauce provides an elegant complement to the delicate beef, especially when served with creamy mashed potatoes and seasonal vegetables.
