With the arrival of autumn, plans at home become more and more common in our agendas. One of our favorites is to prepare a meal with friends or family to enjoy their company for a good time. To achieve a much more special meal, from Barcolobo we give you some ideas for you to pair with our Victoria.

Victoria 2016, your must-have for this autumn

Now that the heat is no longer as suffocating as in the summer, red wines return to our tables. Our Victoria is a sure hit to always have a couple of bottles in the cellar that can save you from any improvised plan.
A production made with great care and care with grapes of different kinds: Tempranillo, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon that get an unmistakable and unrepeatable flavor. Thus, after 14 months of aging in barrels we obtain a wine of purple strength with a lot of life, soft harmonies of black fruit caressed by the wood, licorice, tobacco, smoked… as many as your imagination. Balsamic stimuli of mint, scrubland, sweet touches, which delight our palate.
That is why, to enjoy all the tastes that this wine offers us, we must choose very well which dishes to prepare to accompany it. Here are some options that never fail.

Grilled meats

If there is a combination that never fails is that of red wine with meat. However, within this pairing there are many nuances that depending on the wine we have to take into account. In the case of our Victoria. It is preferable that the type of meat prepared is grilled. Try to prepare a good sirloin steak, in addition to its delicious flavor, you will have the advantage of its convenience as it has no bone. You can also opt for other noble meats with more intense flavors such as entrecote or lamb ribs.

Cured cheeses

Cheeses are another of the absolute hits to pair a wine and surprise your guests. In addition, they are the perfect choice for those visits that arise unexpectedly. Some of the cheeses that you can have in your pantry to taste with our Victoria are cured cheeses such as goat cheese, cured sheep cheese or a Manchego cheese. If you opt for a more international tasting there are Italian cheeses such as Parmesan Pecorino or Grana Padana that are an excellent choice, as well as the well-known French Bleu de Gex.

Prepared vegetables

Red wines are also the perfect companion for more elaborate stewed dishes. Often within this group we only remember stews and meat stews, but vegetables can give us a lot of play with a wine like Victoria 2016. Our bet in this case is for two very simple dishes, a mushroom stir-fry and eggplants stuffed with a garnish such as a veal ragout.
Surely now you are not lacking ideas to invite your friends next weekend to enjoy a good Victoria de Barcolobo. You can buy it now in our online store.
