What it pairs with
-
Foie gras with quince
The Aszú's sweet-acid balance complements foie gras; quince echoes the wine's fruit. -
Strong blue cheese with walnuts
Walnut-spice notes in the wine echo the garnish; sweetness and acidity handle blue cheese. -
Warm hazelnut cake
Walnut and spice in the wine pair naturally with a warm nut-based dessert.
