Pairings | Nepalese chicken

A menu for Riesling

Posted on May 20 2010 at 07:47

Earlier this week I was involved in judging a selection of South African rieslings at High Timber in London and afterwards we had a three course lunch that had been designed to match with them. This is what we ate and drank.

I don’t often buy wine in quantity but given it’s now illegal for South African wine producers to sell their wine on the domestic market we wine lovers need to do what we can to help them out. No great hardship when it involved buying a case of @chrisalheit’s fabulous Cartology, a blend of 90% Chenin Blanc and 10% Semillon on an amazing offer from @vinosa_ltd. It’s still a comparative baby from the 2018 vintage so I’ll have to try and keep my hands off it though I think I probably should just try one bottle in the next six months or so, don’t you? Rude not to. (Incidentally @waitrose has just put together a case of some of its best South African wines at a substantial discount. Details on their website https://www.waitrosecellar.com/exclusive-wine-offers/waitrose-south-african-case-6-2020-522923) . . . #chrisalheit #cartology #cheninblanc #drinkchenin #drinksouthafrican #wine #instawine #winestagram #winelovers #whitewine #paidfor#challengeaccepted @trishdeseine! Not quite sure what I’m doing here - unmade up in the kitchen on a Tuesday afternoon isn’t the greatest look - but it IS my natural habitat and in solidarity with all the amazing women I love and respect it’s worth a little bit of embarrassment!

This time it’s the grilled monkfish with salsa verde I had at the @seahorse.restaurant last week with a gorgeous Sardinian vermentino from @sommelierschoiceltd. Find out why that particular combination worked so well by clicking the link in my biog. . . . #monkfish #salsaverde #vermentino #foodandwine #winepairing #winematching #matchoftheweek #seahorsealmare #dartmouth #guestHad a hunch it might be a good time to descend on the charity shops which are inundated with stuff after lockdown clearouts so thrilled to bag this 9 plate set from my local Shelter. The pattern is apparently Scotch Ivory. It’s a little bit battered but I love it! Thanks @bettymarmalade99 for alerting us all they’d reopened . . . #plates #crockery #retro #vintage #artdeco #charityshopfind #charityshop #clifton #bristol Follow on Instagram
