Texture, freshness and notes of exploding ripe fruits. A wine from the regular directory that I buy often since it's that good! See the product
Saison Framboise, Dunham
Dare to try a raspberry beer! It will be a great pairing with the tomatoes, the red wine vinegar and the port in this dish. The Saison yeast will bring a peppery touch to the soup. The light acidity of this beer will evoke the one in the dish. See the product
