This lemon rack of lamb is simple, but SO tasty. In collaboration with Aliments du Québec, I had the chance to visit the Bêlerie in Cowansville and taste their products. If you go near them, I suggest you stop and say hello to them!

Preparation
- Place the rack of lamb in a large resealable bag and set aside.
- In a bowl, add the rest of the ingredients, season with salt and pepper then mix well. Pour the mixture into the bag and reseal, removing as much air as possible. Reserve in the fridge for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 400 °F.
- In a skillet heated over medium-high heat, add a thin drizzle of olive oil and brown the meat on all sides, 8 to 10 minutes total.
- Place in the oven and cook for about 15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 130 °F for medium rare. Place on a plate, cover with foil and let stand 5 minutes. Slice and serve!

El Esteco Don David Reserve Syrah Vallée Calchaqui 2023
Valles Calchaquíes, Argentina
The El Esteco Don David Reserve Syrah, an aromatic and smooth red from Argentina, has the peppery, dark-fruit side syrah is known for, which loves lamb, garlic and oregano. Because it's smooth, it won't fight the lemon and honey on the rack, so the lamb stays front and center. Pick up the bones with your hands, nobody at the table is judging.

Grisette de la Marmitte, 4.3%
Sutton Brouërie
Lemon and lamb pull in two different directions. This oaked grisette holds both: its clove follows the farmy side of the meat and its lemony notes land on the zest. Its lively fizz lightens the richness of the rack without wiping anything out.
