Purple Potato Leek Soup

With the temperatures dropping, it’s about time to cuddle up with some warm soup! This Potato and Leek Soup is perfect for the colder winter months and can be served as a lunch soup or a dinner soup. The purple adds color and nutrition to the meal, while the leeks add a nice savory flavor. Try with one of our Pinot Noir varieties: Chris Paul Signature Series Napa Valley Pinot Noir, San Luis Obispo Reserve Pinot Noir, or our California Pinot Noir.
