Perfect pairings

Make your next meal even more special with advice on the drinks you should be matching with your food to create a flavour sensation.

Pairings for white wine

Pour a glass of our Irresistible Gavi for a beautiful citrus acidity that helps to season the creamy indulgent smoked salmon linguine and take it to a higher level.

Our Irresistible chenin blanc matches the sweetness of a true British classic – chicken tikka masala – while providing a mellow acidity to cut through the rich, creamy spiced sauce.

Experience the vanilla, sweetness and subtle acidity which delivers lovely piquancy and a superb partnership with the aromatic floral katsu sauce.

Experience how the Irresistible Marsanne provides a sweet honey, subtle acidity and roasted nut taste that makes the sweet, spicy bean chilli even more special.

A pairing for sparkling water

Lemon and lime sparkling water provides some sweetness to partner the tomato and sweet shellfish while creating a little acidity to season the dish and evoke memories of summer holidays.

Pairings for red wine

The beautiful earthiness of this pinotage complements the root vegetables and lentils, while providing an enticing and subtle sweetness.

Notice how the sweet profile and mellow acidity of the pinot noir enhances the rich gravy, providing additional sweetness and contrasting acidity to cut through this indulgent homely British classic.

Take our rich indulgent Italian classic lasagne al forno and match with a classic Italian wine. The bold flavours work harmoniously, to satisfy all of the palate’s senses, offering rich creaminess, acidity, sweetness, mellow salt, bitterness and rich, meaty umami depth.

Enjoy a full Mediterranean experience with rich creamy white sauce, sweet tomato and meaty backnotes melding beautifully with sweet acidic full-bodied Rioja.

Pairings for beer, ale and cider

Savour the crispy, subtle malt, stone fruit and clean finish of the beer together with the sweet mild British classic chicken tikka masala. The fizzy lager cuts through the rich creamy sauce to provide a clean mouth feel.

This light, crisp lager has a subtle bitterness that mimics the taste of the salty black olives, elevating the sweet and tangy tomato. The beer’s grains also work beautifully with the pasta.

The toasted nutty malt, and floral citrus hops of Moretti provide a strong flavour to complement the spicy jalapenos and complex spiced sweet tomato. The fizzy does a great job of cutting through the creamy beans.
