Viognier (pronounced vee-on-yee-ay) is a rich, exotically fruity white wine, sometimes achieving quite high levels of alcohol so what are the ideal foods to pair with it?

Many people say they don't like chardonnay but as anyone who has a taste for top white burgundy or other premium new world chardonnays will know it’s a spectacular food wine.

Another epic night at our Collaborative Cooking Club. The theme was game (with a backtrack of Christmas carols) and the menu a partridge, beetroot and walnut salad from @barnyhaughton , gnocchi with venison and wild boar ragu from @sapsedluke and me, a magnificently lavish multi-layered chartreuse of game from @xantheclay and a chestnut and chocolate Mont Blanc from Caroline. We all pitch in and help with each other’s dishes though. Wines - including Chambolle Musigny and Bandol - weren’t too shabby either. Surprised anyone was still standing by the end #gameon. . . . #gamebirds #pheasant #partridge #gamedinner #chestnut #supperclub #cooking #cookingwithfriends #bristolAbsolutely GORGEOUS veg from @formerly_birch’s allotment including Jerusalem artichokes, squash, chard and celery leaf. Plus cider and homemade cider vinegar. If you’re anywhere near #templemeads station in the next hour or so it’s worth braving this utterly shitty weather for. (They’re at @hartsbakery Xmas market). . . . #veg #vegetables #greens #chard #jerusalemartichokes #cider #applecidervinegar #vinegar #bristolCheck out the hashtag #100yearswomensvoting to see a fantastic selection of images celebrating this historic event. This shot of Birmingham New Street station comes from @alphaworksb1 #regram. . . . #women #womenempowerment #womensrights #womensvote #publicart #birminghamSegovian suckling pig @sabor_ldn which feels like a little bit of Spain in the heart of London. Extraordinarily delicate sweet meat and crisp skin + exemplary chips. Also an amazing fish stew with skate and hard boiled eggs. First time I’ve been to the asador upstairs - feels like the best kind of home cooking @nieves_barragan1 @gemmabelleats. Lovely pre-Christmas treat. #guest. . . . #pork #sucklingpig #spanishfood #sabor #london #nievesbarragan Follow on Instagram
