Food Pairing: Pork Shashlik with Spicy Red Wine Marinade (Recipe)

 

I have a picture of old cabin walls in my head when I sniff this wine. Best summed up as that Super Mario Kart level where you race on the rainbow. Lots of things going on but all in harmony and it is a smooth ride!

 

Raspberry and poached red cherries with parsley, oregano, mustard seed, jalapeno and cilantro. Reminiscent of a baked veggie lasagne. The nose is powerful and the finish is of tobacco and earth. A great Spanish Red!
