When it comes to enjoying fine wine, the right food pairing can elevate both the wine and your meal to new heights. Enira offers a range of sophisticated flavors and textures, each designed to complement specific dishes.

Enira Bessa Valley 2018

This sophisticated wine features a dark garnet color, a silky, balanced taste, and a fragrant, lasting finish.

Best Pairing Suggestions:

• Meats: Grilled steaks, lamb chops, and pork. The fattiness of the meat balances the wine’s tannins, while the vanilla and cocoa elements in the wine are greatly enhanced by the smoky flavors of the meat.
• Cheese: Aged Cheddar or Gouda. The sharpness of these cheeses contrasts with the wine’s fruit and cocoa notes, while the harmonious texture of the wine complements the creaminess of the cheese.
• Desserts: Dark chocolate-based desserts. The cocoa notes in both the wine and the dessert create a delightful combination, and the wine’s plum and forest fruit aromas add an extra layer of complexity to the rich flavors of dark chocolate.

Enira White 2021

This white wine blend of Marsanne, Roussanne, and Viognier has a rich, oily texture with a crisp finish. The prolonged finish leaves a lingering impression of fruity character, with tropical and citrus notes that continue to shine.

Best Pairing Suggestions:

• Seafood: Seared scallops, lobster with lemon butter, or grilled prawns. The wine’s citrus and tropical notes complement the sweetness of the seafood, while its crispness cuts through the richness.
• Poultry: Roast chicken with herbs or turkey breast with a creamy sauce. The wine’s rich texture pairs well with the savory and slightly fatty elements of these dishes.
• Cheese: Soft cheeses like Brie or Camembert. The wine’s floral and fruity notes enhance the creamy textures of these cheeses.

Enira Reserva 2018

This full-bodied Bordeaux blend has a deep garnet color. It shows excellent balance, with ripe fruit and well-integrated oak. It offers an array of aromas dominated by plum, black cherry, blueberry, violet, nuts, and chocolate.

Best Pairing Suggestions:

• Red Meat: Slow-cooked beef stew, braised lamb shank, or grilled porterhouse steak. The wine’s rich body and tannins complement the hearty, robust flavors of red meat.
• Cheese: Aged cheeses like Parmigiano-Reggiano, aged Gouda, or mature blue cheese. The wine’s complexity enhances the sharpness and depth of these cheeses.
