The best food pairings for dry (or off-dry) riesling

It’s sometimes hard to predict what type of food will pair well with riesling because they’re all so different - some being bone dry, some ultra sweet, some positively floral, others zingy and citrussy.

Fantastic meal and some terrific wines @tenutafa. Perfect salad with cheese, pancetta, figs and walnuts - great with their lightly wooded alvarinho followed by the most amazing dish of pork, linguiça toscana, beans and shredded greens with their touriga nacional. AND a dish of beef and rice to go with their top wine GOAT which stands - tongue in cheek - for Greatest of All Time. The two young winemakers who own it started making wine in a basement and are still only 26 and 27. The chef @luandamiano, like most of the people they work with, is a mate. Great story. #brazilianwine #guest. . . . #salad #pork #beans #alvarinho #brazilianfoodOne thing I didn’t expect in Brazil wine country was a South African level of wine tourism. This is the rather gorgeous @grupomiolo wine garden and the view from the top of the tower. There are luxurious little pods dotted around the grass where you can recline like a Roman emperor (or empress) and drink sparkling wine. Obvs the weather helps #sorrynotsorry #presstrip #brazilianwine . . . #wine #winetourism #miolo #winegardenDoesn’t this frosty weather make you feel like a fondue? Mmmmmm - it certainly does me. Treat yourself to one this weekend. Here’s my recipe from Winelovers’ Kitchen (link in profile. Original photo by Mowie Kay) Couple of great tips too to stop it splitting. . . . #fondue #cheesefondue #apresski #winterfood #gruyere #cheeseJanuary has been full of unexpected feasts like this Piedmontese dinner at @trullo_restaurant, a restaurant I’ve never managed to get to until now. Definitely lived up to its reputation. Great menu, kicking off with vitello tonnato and bagna cauda and some really indulgent wines from @massolinowinery including this charmingly bright, breezy dolcetto. Some lovely barolos too. Rubbish pix - blaming the atmospheric lighting but some gorgeous little booths downstairs if you’re booking #guest . . . #vitellotonnato #bagnacauda #winedinner #redwine #dolcetto #barolo #trullo #islington Follow on Instagram
