Pairs well with

  • Due to the nutty components a Reserve level wine is called for here, and Grüner Veltliner imparts a sense of freshness.
  • Chardonnay, Weissburgunder or Grauburgunder matured in cask with a bit of bottle age ­ complements the dish with noble & delicate roasted aromas. The Pinot-family wines complement the opulent sauce with elegant acidity without being overly aggressive.
  • Traminer would also be interesting for its scent of roses & nutmeg, building upon the aromatic spectrum of the Thai spices.
