Notes from The Bottle Shop

For a comforting meal like this lamb dish, a wine with equal nostalgic and charm works perfectly. This Château Macquin, Bordeaux, delivers concentrated aromas of cassis and bramble berries.

An aromatic wine such as Baron Badassière, Viognier, would sit perfectly with this dish. The silky texture and ripe fruit palette can hold up to the tangy goats’ cheese and the heat of chilli.

We’ve picked a dry white wine to go with this creamy gnocchi. It’s fresh, with bright citrus flavours. A great wine that pairs perfectly with this hearty Italian dish.

The Perfect Pair is a series where our Bottle Shop wine experts work with the chefs at their big houses to create the perfect recipe to pair alongside one of our wines.
