Posted on September 5 2013 at 09:04

We automatically think of matching wine and cheese or beer and cheese but there are many drinks that work just as well and can give a real ‘wow factor’ to your cheeseboard.

8 great wine and other matches for Stollen

Although stollen is a little bit lighter than the classic British Christmas baking some of the pairings I suggested with mince pies (like sweet sherry and tawny port) will work too . . .

The £25 fixed price lunch @wilsonsbristol is one of the best bargains in Bristol. Crab tart, wicked little crunchy potatoes, chalk streak trout tartare, pigeon, custard tart with rhubarb. It has a Michelin green star. It should have a full blown one, arguably two. Great to skive with @emmalphabet . . . #crab #trout #pigeon #squab #rhubarb #finedining #bristol #wilsonsbristolCouldn’t quite bring myself to tuck into this at 9.30 in the morning but what a genius idea @hartsbakery. I will be back at a more dauphinoisey time of day .. . . . #danish #dauphinoise #potato #breakfast #hartsbakery #bristolI *know* I’m biased but @hawksmoordublin may just be the most beautiful Hawksmoor yet. And that ‘Dublin Lawyer’ lobster dish with cream, whiskey and Cais na Tire cheese is insanely good. (Order it to share - it’s super-rich!) Also textbook Hawksmoor scallops, an Irish tiramisu and steak obvs. Cracking wine choice too from Wine Manager @sineadamc. Thanks @wjjbeckett for an utter treat . . . #hawksmoordublin #hawksmoor #lobster #scallops #tiramisu #sommelier #wine #guestSlap-up fishy feast @fishshopbenburb last night topped by this amazing fish and chips. Also worked our way through an indecent number of snacks including smoked haddock croquettes, anchovies with Russian salad and squid on toast. Washed down with a bottle of champagne. Thanks @manandasuitcase for a cracking night. (Wish Mondays were always as fun as this!) 💚#dublin . . . #fishandchips #friedfish #croquettes #anchovies #squid #champagne #foodandwine Follow on Instagram
