Matthew Clark Summer 2024

Chateau d’Esclans Whispering Angel Rosé

Who can resist a sweet treat?

When matching wine and food, it’s sometimes about contrast and sometimes about pairing like with like. This pretty blush rosé has plenty of redcurrant and berry flavour to accentuate this berry heavy dish, alongside subtle spice and a surprisingly herbal character towards the finish. In short, this wine is summer in a glass.

“I’m summer in a glass”

When it comes to Summer Pudding, the clue is in the name. This simple dish is a true celebration of the berries that ripen throughout the warmer months. Sweet and tart in equal measures, it can be surprisingly difficult to pair with wines as traditional dessert wines would overpower the more delicate berry flavours. Never fear! We are here to help you give this dish it’s day in the sun with unbeatable pairings that your customers will love.

“I’m deliciously

fragrant”

Il Vino Dell’Amore Petalo Moscato For a sweet wine pairing you may want to recommend a moscato that balances fruit and honey sweetness with a spritzy finish. Fragrant and floral, this Italian expression is refreshing enough for your customers to enjoy on the terrace as they round out their meal with a luscious berry dessert.

“I’m zesty and bright”

Chateau Ste. Michelle Columbia Valley Riesling This Washington State wine is a beautiful expression of riesling that is perfect served chilled when the weather turns scorching. Dry and crisp with characteristic citrus flavours, this riesling will complement a berry forward dish in the same way a squeeze of lemon can enhance the natural flavours of the fruit.
