Extraordinary Sherry Pairing
Last night I went on a Sherry bar crawl in Nola asking my #sherrybroads to pair amazing food with wine. Molly from R'Evolution called this Sherry "ethereal" so I just had to have it.
A beautiful 12 year old Palo Cortado from González Byass, the Leonor is nutty with a hint of spice and an extended finish. An amber colored dream. Christine from Angeline paired it with a new fish from Chef Alex: clams with wild boar sausage. This pairing was to die for. Stunningly delicious. It's no wonder we are Sherry Broad City here in Nola. Come check this out, y'all.
