This elegant salad brings together juicy oranges, peppery greens, creamy burrata, and a pop of pomegranate sweetness—all dressed in a light, tangy vinaigrette. Each bite is a celebration of contrasting flavors and textures, perfectly complemented by the vibrant acidity and layered notes of our 2021 Estelle Bianco. It’s a refreshing, colorful addition to your holiday spread.
