Top pairings for dry and off-dry Alsace whites

Top pairings for dry and off-dry Alsace whites

Posted on April 15 2014 at 07:53

On a recent visit to Alsace, I had the pleasure of rediscovering the region’s diverse wine offerings, from crisp Rieslings to  Gewürztraminer and Pinot Gris. What struck me during this trip was how integral sweetness is to perfecting a food and wine pairing—a nuance that can vary greatly between a youthful bottle and a more aged vintage.

The first thing everyone asked me when I got back from Korea was what does the food taste like? Unless you live in London, or New Malden in Surrey, which, rather randomly, boasts the UK’s biggest concentration of Korean restaurants, then you probably won’t be familiar with Korean food.

Finally got to the much talked about @dorian.nottinghill yesterday and it didn’t disappoint. It’s surprisingly small, loud and very expensive but the food and the flavour combinations are brilliant. Love the fact that they have 5 kinds of rosti on the menu (though they are just bites) and two kinds of offal including ox tongue and sweetbreads. And that lobster tail is insanely good as it should be for £65. (Bear in mind the clientele though. It’s reputedly @victoriabeckhambeauty’s favourite restaurant - she even named a handbag after it.) Don’t be put off, it’s fun, buzzy and if you’re careful about what you order just about affordable. PS the winelist is sensationally good too. #guest but will go back . . . #doriannottinghill #nottinghill #lobster #sweetbreadsNever seen Tower Bridge from this height before. Even the cheese grater looked glam. The view from @luckycatbygordonramsay at 22 Bishopsgate - apparently now London’s highest restaurant - is utterly breathtaking. As is the 40 second journey up in the lift. Only downside is the noise level but then I’m not the target audience. Mind comprehensively blown. #guest . . . #view #nightsky #londonatnight #skyscraper #gordonramsayStarting in reverse order with this pitch perfect tiramisu the best food is wonderfully simple. Another great meal @sonnystores - the set price lunch at £25 is ridiculously good value . . . #bristolfood #lunch #tiramisu #speckThe glorious new incarnation of @heronbooksbristol now an expansive two floors down the bottom end of Regent Street in Clifton. Next door to the excellent @smaller_footprints where you can buy exactly the quantity of dry goods you need and a couple of doors down from @foliagecafeclifton where you can huddle up with your new book and a cup of coffee. Lizzie and Harry are real enthusiasts who can talk you through any book or author you might be thinking of dipping into. #thejoyofreading. . . . #books #boodstagram #booklover #bookshop #heronbooks #clifton #bristol #shoplocal #indie Follow on Instagram
