What it pairs with

  • Roast goose with red cabbage
    Full body and pepper notes stand up to the richness of goose; acidity cuts the fat.
  • Grilled pike with herb butter
    The wine's mineral and herbal notes complement the delicate river fish.
  • Pasta with smoked salmon and cream
    Full body and acidity balance the rich cream sauce while the mineral note echoes the salmon.

History
