What it pairs with
-
Salmon
Named by the producer; the wine's weight and tannin stand up to an oily fish. -
Cheese
Teliani lists cheese, and skin-contact tannin and cheese salt balance each other. -
Spicy food
The producer specifically recommends spicy dishes; the honey and dried-fruit sweetness of aroma takes the edge off chilli.
