California Syrah.
The ideal companion to anything slow cooked and rich. Pair with osso buco, pot roast
or roasted lamb. Syrah is amazing with duck, Spanish chorizo and pretty much anything
barbecued, especially a hamburger or chicken with a sweet and tangy tomato based sauce.
Vegetarians can enjoy this wine with a mushroom risotto, Portobello ratatouille or chard
sautéed with garlic onions and tomatoes.
