EVERY MONTH A DISH AND A WINE

Dreaming of the perfect pairing

I am sure that for this month you would have expected a very rich and consistent combination. Maybe a soup and a full-bodied red. Instead I decided to surprise you with a dish of unique grace and a wine that is silk.

The plate was created by Raw Radish, that is Simone and Federica, a duo that has made structured simplicity its stylistic code. It is a completely vegetable reinterpretation of foie gras. They describe it like this: Even the ugliest things can be changed to make them better. Starting from the classic French dish based on goose liver, we created “Gold”, a dish based on free-range lentils served with a cruelty free saffron jelly and a sun-drenched dried apricot sauce … “

The wine I paired with this dish with reflects the light and gold present in it. Batàr is an extraordinary white in the land of reds. A wine that tells the sensitive soul of Tuscany, making the best Chardonnay and Pinot Bianco of Querciabella grapes vibrant and seductive.

An exceptional combination for the Christmas holidays.
