Tuna Steak au Poivre from Epicurious, with pea shoots, a quick cucumber pickle, and a tomato salad (fresh from the garden). Delicious!

Wines: 2010 La Noche de San Juan Malbec Rose, with a lovely aroma and flavor of dried strawberries and vanilla; and 2010 Casa do Valle Vinho Verde Rose, with a strawberry jam aroma and flavor, a bit drier and more acidic than the Malbec. Overall, we preferred the Malbec with this dish.
