We have a boneless leg of lamb which has been marinating overnight in lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, garlic cloves, and my own fresh rosemary sprigs I grow. I knew we wanted to oven roast it today for Easter Dinner, but - was unsure what temperature, etc. This recipe sounds wonderful as well and we'll try it one day, thanks!. Thanks for the great information - and wow, you raise your own lambs as well as grow your own grapes, that is awesome!
