Notes and pairings

Notes and pairings

Tasting notes

Serve at 17-18°C. To pair with this wine, we recommend roasted quail, stuffed quail, or, for a more original touch, caramelized quail. Regardless of the recipe, this dish, accompanied by potatoes cooked in the quail's own juices, will delight even the most discerning palates.
