Importing wine

Vinegar and chips :yum::slightly_smiling_face:

I’m still recovering from your “Petrus and chips” Vero

I love vinegar - put remnants of only good wine in my vinegar jar , no point putting bad wine in it, just makes bad vinegar. Just as, if it isn’t nice enough to drink it isn’t nice enough to cook with either :slightly_smiling_face:

Of course! Forgot about that, but then I don’t consider those foods greasy in the way a UK fry up is….

(And not sure I’d squander a vin de paille on a raclette,)

You can check it out. Ch. d’Yquem with fois gras as an entree. Or after dinner as in the UK.

I hadn’t been thinking of those - I do see the difficulty of which wine to pair with a lovely deep-fried mealie pudding. Ditch the wine and go for whisky :slight_smile:

Of course with foie gras, very good with Roquefort too, actually lovely with pissaladière, most Sauternes and Monbazillacs are wasted on pudding.

There is such a wide range of wines available these days … could take more than one lifetime to properly investigate them all… hic…

and, of course, one person’s favourite could well be another’s nightmare…

Thankfully, our cellar hides a good supply of tried and trusted wines… which we intend to gently work our way through… hurrah… hic
