Wine Pairing

Advice of Wine to combine

Suggest from Sommelier

When a dish has wine as an ingredient, we commonly accompany it with the same wine. In this particular case, given the characteristics of lush, creamy sweetness of the dish, I find neither affinities nor contrasts that would allow it to pair with a red wine. In a late harvest wine from Casablanca, with a viscous texture and fruity sweetness 1 do find an affinity that enhances both the dessert and the wine.
