Autumnal delight with fine veal and mushroom flavors
A classic example of wine with food: Tender veal, slowly braised with aromatic porcini mushrooms, fine root vegetables and a dash of white wine. The creamy sauce coats fresh ribbon noodles, while parmesan and parsley enhance the dish. This veal ragout combines earthy, nutty and buttery notes to create an autumnal moment of indulgence. A perfect dish for cozy evenings where wine and food go together harmoniously. Ideally accompanied by an elegant Pinot Noir Givry AOC from Bourgogne, which stylishly complements the ragout with fine fruit and subtle spice.
Ideal wine pairing: Pinot Noir Givry AOC (Bourgogne, France)
The Pinot Noir Givry AOC from the southern Côte Chalonnaise harmonizes perfectly with the fine veal ragout. Its aromas of red berries, violets, some undergrowth and subtle spices reflect the autumnal mood of the dish. The fresh acidity lifts the creamy sauce, while fine tannins emphasize the texture of the tender veal. A hint of wood barrel and subtle roasted aromas combine with the porcini mushrooms and parmesan of the tagliatelle. A wine with elegance and depth that strikes a masterful balance between finesse and warmth.
