Our master of wines Livio has recommended some brilliant and tasty beverages to accompany this delicious starter.
LIVIO’S RECOMMENDATION:
With fish, and especially with smoked fish, I recommend white wines that have full fruity aromas on the nose and very fresh at the palate, with wines aged in oak barrels being the best match for this tasty dish.
My recommendations are:
• Champagne NV from France
• Chablis from France
• Pouilly Fume from France
• Sauvignon Blanc either from New Zealand or Chile
• Chenin Blanc from South Africa
• Pecorino from Italy
• Albariño Rías Baixas from Spain
And why not try a dark rum based cocktail like Planter’s Punch, an easy to prepare cocktail at home
Ingredients:
• 50ml dark rum
• 20ml lime juice, freshly squeezed
• 10ml sugar syrup
• 5ml of grenadine
• 3 dashes Angostura bitters
• 1 splash soda water
• Garnish: mint sprig
Enjoy
