This week, thanks to Vinum Menorca, a unique cava that you have to try at least once in your life. A selection of artisan cavas from Codorniu. Made with Pinot Noir, Xarel lo and Trepat, which gives it an acidic and elegant flavour. Enjoy it for Saint Anthony or save it for Valentine's Day.
• Appearance: Straw yellow colour, but with golden reflections, delicate bubbles and a persistent and uniform crown.
• Nose: Floral aromas and red fruits from the Pinot Noir predominate.
• Mouth: Fresh, creamy and full-bodied, characteristic of the great reserves.
Due to its acidic flavour, it pairs perfectly with carpaccio, sushi and smoked fish. Ideal for roasted and grilled meats. It also goes very well with desserts.
Ideal to start the table with starters with toast with marinated or smoked salmon, foie micuit, Iberian or Guijuelo ham, tuna belly in olive oil, soft and buttery cow's milk cheeses.
Carpaccios, both of Menorcan red beef and Ciutadella red shrimp, octopus or scallop, among others. Also ideal to accompany tartars.
It goes well with sushi and oriental dishes such as salmon or red tuna tatakis, also Menorcan red beef, as well as tempura shrimp or vegetables.
It will pair perfectly with cockles or natural oysters; grilled crayfish or grilled shrimp, in the same way that it will go perfectly with noble grilled or grilled fish such as grouper, snapper or dentex.
If we choose meat, it pairs perfectly with fattier meats such as roast suckling pig or lamb, without forgetting goat, turkey or roast capons and chickens.
Baked fish with potatoes such as red snapper, sea bass, or cuttlefish, or aubergines stuffed with seafood, monkfish in a sailor's sauce or with almond sauce.
