One of my favourite pairings is something spicy with something sweet and this match worked out beautifully.  The 2012 Featherstone Black Sheep Riesling is light, crisp and has some sweetness to it, and that cuts right through the spice of the meat, while the rigid acidity of the wine breaks through the fat.  Furthermore, the crisp, fruitiness of the wine paired very well with fresh strawberries.  The sweetness and the acidity of the wine played nicely with the acidity and sugars of the fruit, accentuating it. Other wines that would work well would include Rieslings from Mosel, Germany, gew\u00fcrztraminers, Asti Spumante, Pinot Gris from Alsace, Moscato d’Asti and other semi-sweet wines.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
