And the Amisfield Pinot Gris goes well with these dishes
The Amisfield Pinot Gris from Central Otago, New Zealand is a versatile food companion. Enjoy it with the following dishes:
Poultry: Dishes such as roast chicken, turkey or duck, especially when served with fruity or mildly flavoured sauces, go well with Pinot Gris.
Shellfish: dishes such as prawns, langoustines or lobster, especially in creamy or lightly spiced preparations, complement the often soft texture and rich flavour of Pinot Gris.
Cheese: Medium-strength cheeses such as Gouda, Munster or Emmental are great accompaniments for Pinot Gris.
Fruity and mild Asian dishes: Thai or Vietnamese dishes with a sweet and sour balance offer a nice contrast to Pinot Gris.
Smoked salmon or smoked fish: The often present flavours of stone fruits and the texture of Pinot Gris from New Zealand can complement the rich flavours of smoked fish.
Pasta with creamy sauces: These include dishes such as pasta Alfredo or pasta with a light lemon and cream sauce, which go well with the often full body and light sweetness of New Zealand Pinot Gris.
Root vegetables and autumnal dishes: dishes with sweet potatoes, pumpkin or carrots, served roasted or in a soup, are excellent accompaniments for Pinot Gris, as their sweet and earthy notes complement the fruitiness and softness of the wine.
Sushi and sashimi: The purity and freshness of sushi and sashimi can enhance the subtle fruit flavours and balance of Pinot Gris.
Apple-based desserts: Apple pie or apple tart, served with a not-too-sweet Pinot Gris, can provide a surprisingly fitting end to a meal.
