What it pairs with

With cheese

Garrotxa Our pick Dry white Corpinnat, aged 18 to 50 months on its lees, brings high acidity and a fine bead: the bubbles scrub Garrotxa's buttery paste from the palate and leave the mild, lactic goat's milk and its damp-cellar rind in front.

History

Terrers is Recaredo's entry into its biodynamic flagship range, focused on the indigenous trio with Xarel-lo leading. 36 months on lees and hand-disgorged like the rest of the Recaredo line; the wine demonstrates the estate's house style at an approachable price.
