About the Dish

100% Garnacha Blanca. Natural fermentation in 2000L wooden barrels after 7 hours of pericarp soaking. Pesticide-free, natural yeast, no added sulfites, amber wine aged sur lie for 9 months. A wine that feels natural, like grapes turned into alcohol. A mineral, spicy, dynamic and long finish.

Ingredients

  • 200g Lamb loin
  • 1 Pear
  • 1/2 Onion
  • 100cc White wine
  • 5g Consomme granules
  • 1tsp Honey
  • 2tbsp Fresh cream
  • 1tbsp Butter
  • Flour, olive oil, salt, pepper: each as needed

Directions

  1. 1

    Season the lamb meat with salt and pepper and dust lightly with flour. Finely chop the onion, cut half the pear into wedges, and roughly chop the rest.

  2. 2

    Put olive oil in a frying pan, put lamb meat in it, and once both sides are browned well, take it out.

  3. 3

    Add butter and onions and sauté over low heat until tender.

  4. 4

    Add lamb meat and pear, add white wine, consommé granules and honey, and simmer for about 10 minutes. From time to time, scrape the bottom of the pot with a wooden spatula to evaporate the juice and thicken it.

  5. 5

    Add fresh cream to the finish, let it boil for a while, and it will be completed.

Food and Marriage Points
It is a fricassee (=lightly stewed) that makes the most of the pear character. The pear, which is less sour and has a gentle taste, brings out the umami of the rum to create a rich dish. Please enjoy the rich marriage with “amber” natural wine that goes beyond orange.
