Pairings
Oh is this every a food wine! Firstly: this is a wine famous for its affinity for cheese- the stinkier the better. This wine's nutty intensity makes it awesome for Middle-Eastern spices, Mediterranean cuisine, and any kind of intense seafood. Honestly, we love this just the way it is. This is a treat! -AO
