Three Ideas for Matching Food and Wine This Summer

Three Ideas for Matching Food and Wine This Summer

by Mireille Kilgour

As the warm weather kicks in, it's time to start entertaining. According to Vogue, part of being a great host is knowing what combination of wine and food to serve guests. Try pairing these dishes and sparkling wines:

Beetroot salad with vintage brut rose

Crisp beetroot served in perfect circles, topped with goats curd and drizzled with pureed carrot makes for a simple yet elegant dish. Team with a slightly sweet rose for a match made in heaven.

Green tea pannacotta with Chandon cuvee riche

Green tea pannacotta makes a nice change from the traditional vanilla bean and teamed with white chocolate, ginger and pandan syrup you've got a winner. Paired with a glass of Chandon cuvee riche, made in a similar way to French champagne, and you've got a refreshing combination.

Kangaroo with sparkling pinot shiraz

Kangaroo is a meat that will always get your guests talking when done right. Rich in flavour, kangaroo works perfectly with a pumpkin purée, crisp potato and mushrooms. It's even better when finished off with a sparkling pinot shiraz.
