Wine (and other) pairings for peaches and nectarines

Posted on August 2 2020 at 06:17

Being surrounded by peaches and nectarines at the moment has reminded me what a brilliant match they are for a glass of dessert wine. And, surprisingly, even for a red!

Very special line-up of bottles @rhubarb_at_drapers_hall last night. Thanks @jamestannerwine for so generously sharing. #wine #finewine #chablis #dauvissatcamus #chambollemusigny #burgundy #ghislainebarthod #coterotie #rostaing #instawine #winestagramMore floral gorgeousness from @rhschelsea. Love a delphinium - in fact turns out there’s an actual Delphinium Society. Who knew! #flowers #chelseaflowershow #delphinium #wildflowers #floralarrangementSuch an incredibly English experience wandering round the Chelsea Flower Show down to the occasional torrential downpour. Just amazing how the growers manage to get flowers that are not in season looking so perfect. And the ROSES! Major garden envy! #chelseaflowershow #flowers #flowerstagram #roses #fuschia #peonies #pink #veryenglish #gardenAd: I have major competition envy about this month’s prize which is a properly serious @magimixuk ice cream machine with its own freezer unit which means you can rustle up homemade ice-cream at any time without having to faff around freezing bowls. It’s called the Magimix Gelato Expert and you can find out how to enter via the link in my biog. (Will be well jel if you win!) #icecream #icecreammaker #magimix #gelato #sundae #homemadeicecream #competition #prize #ad Follow on Instagram
