Winter is the star season to enjoy homemade dishes, those of a lifetime. Hearty broths, stews and stews not only warm our bodies and comfort us, but they are also ideal dishes to accompany with Maius Barranc de la Bruixa. The slow cooking, texture and flavors of the dishes that we present to you in this article, find their best ally in Maius.
Lentil stew with chorizo
It is a classic dish of our cuisine, strong and with a spicy touch. The structure of Maius, as well as its acidity and friendly tannins combine with the texture of the lentils. The notes of wood, on the other hand, fit very well with the spices of the dish and the taste of the chorizo. Since it is a slightly greasy dish, the body of the wine helps to balance the result.
Meatballs with sauce
In this case, the wine accompanies the tender meat without dominating it and respecting the sweetness of the sauce. The acidity of the Maius Barranc de la Bruixa helps to cleanse the palate and provides freshness. In short, both the dish and the wine have a similar level of intensity and depth, so they form a natural pairing.
Pork cheeks with baked potatoes
The gelatin from the pork cheeks helps to soften the tannins of the wine, giving it silkiness and rounding out the mouthfeel. The notes of wood and spices add complexity and integrate very well with the accompaniment of the potatoes. The acidity avoids the feeling of heaviness and balances the unctuousness of the meat. The result is a perfect pairing.
