WINE TO DINE
Wine columnist Peter Ranscombe selects five bottles to rub shoulder to shoulder with Salt Café’s dishes…
TIERRAY HOMBRE SAUVIGNON BLANC 2020 Marks & Spencer £7 Goat’s cheese and sauvignon blanc are a classic pairing, but here we’re turning to Chile rather than France’s Loire Valley.
FINEST COTES DU RHONE VILLAGES SIGNARGUES 2020 Tesco £8 Signargues, the most southerly Rhone village, will pair with the black pudding in those uber-posh beans on toast.
CASTELLO DI RADDA RISERVA CHIANTI CLASSICO 2014 Independent Wine £29.34 A splash-out Chianti from Edinburgh’s Independent Wine to sing alongside the steak and egg dish’s Italianate sauce.
MAPLE LEAF CANADIAN ROSÉ 2019 Aldi £9.99 And now for something completely different – a Canadian rosé with enough sweetness to pair with a pavlova.
M&S PINK PORT Marks & Spencer £8 Raspberries galore among these recipes, and this pink port – made for Markies by famous port house Taylor’s, which traces its roots back to 1692 – is an ideal pairing.
