What it pairs with

  • Slow-cooked pork with fennel
    Skin contact gives the grip that a fatty white meat needs.
  • Moroccan spiced vegetables
    An orange wine handles the spices that defeat most whites.
  • Aged goat cheese
    Three months on skins leave a tannic edge that suits a firm goat cheese.
