Wine - Wine & food pairing — September 2008

Fine Food and New World Wines

We've all done it: splashed out on an expensive, innovative meal, then played it safe with a wine from Burgundy or Bordeaux. To test the theory that the bold flavours of haute cuisine are just as well served by a match from the New World, Michelin-starred L’Ortolan held a special tasting, pairing sophisticated dishes with wines from Chile’s Vina Ventisquero. From 21 October to 20 November, Square Meal readers can enjoy a similar food and wine matching menu for £99. Now booking on 0118 988 8500.
