Tasting notes for Red Wine Viña Alberdi Crianza:

Cherry color with medium layer and sparkles garnet that are already extinguishing.

Very classic and complex in nose and very elegant: notes of breeding, leather, cigar box, coffee and spices wrapping the red and black fruit almost liquor.

The same sensations return as in the nose. It is fine, round, silky and polished, with a light but enveloping mid palate, soft tannins and a smooth finish.

Optimum service temperature: 14° C.

A pairing: Tallarines con ternera y berenjenas.

Ingredients: 250 gr. of noodles, 200 gr. of ground beef, 3 medium eggplants, 100 gr. of sliced mushrooms, 500 gr. of crushed tomato, 2 garlic cloves, 50 gr. of chopped onion, 2 teaspoons of basil, 2 teaspoons of parsley, extra virgin olive oil, salt and pepper.

Elaboration:

- Wash and cut the eggplant in slices, without peeling them, and place them with a little salt and in a sieve for 2 hours, so that they release their bitter juice and dry them well.

- Sauté the onion and chopped garlic, then add the crushed tomato, salt and a pinch of sugar and basil.

- Sauté the eggplant in olive oil, together with the sliced mushrooms and sprinkle with a little parsley.

- Cook the noodles in boiling water with salt, drain and mix the tomato sauce with the noodles and the sautéed eggplant and mushrooms.

Bon Appetite!
