Wine with dinner – celery steak with hazelnut pesto and baked potatoes on rustic wooden table with Riesling glass

Celery steak with hazelnut pesto & baked potatoes

An autumnal vegetable dish full of depth: caramelized celeriac slices, baked in the oven until golden brown, combined with crispy potatoes and a fresh hazelnut pesto. The nutty, buttery and slightly sweet flavours harmonize perfectly with a fine mineral Riesling GG from the Rheingau - real proof of how sophisticated wine can work with food.
