Pairings from Sip ’n Bite
Curated gourmet pairings that highlight the wine's profile and structure — available for takeaway and tasting at Sip ’n Bite
Zaara Cow's milk cheese with figs
The intense fruity and floral notes of the wine enhance the honeyed and fruity nuances of the figs. The acidity of the wine meets the fat of the yellow cheese and refreshes the palate. The figs bring a delicate sweetness to the taste, which adds to the density and aroma of the wine.
Zaara Cow's milk cheese with herbs
The herbal and grassy notes of the wine meet the spices of the yellow cheese and complement and enhance each other. The freshness in the wine "cuts" the fat in the yellow cheese and refreshes the palate.
Snail Truffle pâté
A good choice for a deeper and velvety finish. The citrus and floral notes in the wine contrast the earthy truffle, and the acidity "cuts" the fat in the pâté.
