The best wine pairings with monkfish

The best wine pairings with monkfish

Posted on January 22 2022 at 07:08

Monkfish (or lotte, as the French call it) is a meaty fish that is often roasted so pairs equally well with red wine as with white. In fact a lightly chilled red wine would generally be my preferred match, particularly if it’s wrapped in pancetta or bacon

Figs, blue cheese and Maury

Posted on September 1 2008 at 18:57

We’ve been feasting on figs from our neighbours' fig tree in Grau d’Agde down in the Languedoc this weekend - all the more satisfying as I gather that back home Waitrose is currently selling them at 99p each.

Bristol looking rather beautiful this afternoon in the winter sunshine. . . . #bristol #suspensionbridge #clifton #lateafternoonsun #sundayafternoonReally hard to capture just how stunningly beautiful this is. #upthemountain #mountain #dolomites #pradalago #madonnadicampiglio #wintersnowBit of a showstopper of a charcuterie and cheese board @homestube_mdc, an excellent brewpub I stumbled across on the @gambero_rosso website. Great beer flight for sharing too + rosti, roast chicken, hamburgers, steak, salad and chocolate cake (all shared). Had to go for a brisk trudge through the snow to work it all off and then a lie-down! 😱 . . . #charcuterie #homestube #madonnadicampiglio #beerloverSo what do you do at a ski resort when the weather’s foggy, grey and grizzly? Bunker down in the hotel’s very glam tasting room, chat to the sommelier, *research* the local wines and eat shedloads of home cured speck from the hotel owner’s own pigs. Thanks for the tour, Juri. @hotel_campiglio_bellavista . . . #wine #winecellar #tastingroom #madonnadicampiglio #sommelier #localwine #teroldego #notafreebie Follow on Instagram
