Pomegranate Wine – a perfect match for your Easter feast

When it comes to food and wine matching for Easter it’s time to think outside of the wine box. For the perfect food and wine match this Easter, try pomegranate wine with your menu.

Thanks to their striking flavours, Rimon’s 100% pure pomegranate wines promise a taste of the exotic and are an ideal accompaniment to a variety of dishes.

Here are Rimon’s top food and wine matching tips to wow your friends and family this Easter with an unashamedly different take on a traditional menu featuring seasonal favourites, spring lamb and chocolate:

Roast leg of lamb with thyme and garlic served with Pomegranate Dry Wine - this elegant wine is the perfect accompaniment to classic red meat dishes. Its unique bouquet of rich pomegranate and floral aromas with a faint hint of spice provides a well-balanced, soft finish that wonderfully complements the succulent flavours of the lamb. For an even more intense flavour sensation, why not try substituting your usual red wine with Rimon pomegranate wine for your accompanying jus?

Rich Chocolate Fondant with Pomegranate Dessert Wine – this sweet dessert wine's cherry flavours and underpinning peppery taste combined with its hints of tropical fruits, honey and subtle pomegranate makes an ideal pairing for indulgent chocolate puddings - or even just a delicious chocolate Easter egg!

Cheese board selection with Port Style wine - this unique wine has a nose of stone fruits and sweet spices. A full bodied port, it is sweet on the palate with a delicate warm finish making this a winning combination with strong cheese.

Rimon pomegranate wines are available through selected Waitrose and Tesco stores. They can also be found at specialist UK drinks retailers or direct from the Rimon Winery website at: rimonwinery.co.uk
