What it pairs with
-
Whole roasted lamb (cordero asado)
The wine's intensity and age demand the grandest Castilian roasts. -
Aged Spanish hard cheese (Manchego Viejo)
Long-aged cheese mirrors the wine's mineral depth and dried-fruit complexity. -
Wild mushroom consomme with truffle
Earthy truffle and mushroom resonate with the wine's forest floor register.
