Grilled Brie with Berry Salsa

Pair With: Oberon Napa Valley Merlot

Ingredients

1 (8 oz) Brie round
1/4 cup honey
1 loaf crusty bread, like sourdough
Olive oil (to drizzle over bread)
1 clove garlic
1/2 cup fresh blackberries
1/2 cup fresh blueberries
2 cups fresh medium diced pineapple
1/4 cup fresh raspberries 
1/3 cup fresh basil, sliced or chopped
1 jalapeño, finely chopped
1/2 a lemon or lime, juiced
Pinch of kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Directions

Add the blackberries, blueberries and raspberries to a bowl and using a fork, lightly smash the berries until they are a little saucy. Stir in the basil, jalapeño, lemon or lime juice and pinch of kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Store in the fridge until ready to use.

Pre-heat your grill to high heat or your oven to 450°F.

Place the slices of bread on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil on both sides. Rub each side of bread with the halved garlic clove. Sprinkle the toast with salt and pepper.

Place both the brie and bread slices on the grill and grill both for about 2-3 minutes, until lightly charred. Flip and grill for another 2-3 minutes, being careful when flipping the brie so as to not break it open. Remove from grill once done.

To serve, place the brie on a cutting board and drizzle with honey. Add the mixed berry salsa and serve with the grilled bread.
