Food and Wine Pairings

For Big wines you need bold flavours and the Elephant wines need a protein pairing that will take your Elephant experience to a higher level. For the kind of full-throttle food and wine matching experience you just have to think about the weight and flavour profile of the wine and then you have a basis for exploring the many wonderful food and wine combinations possible.

Elephant in the Room Food and Wine Suggestions

• Shiraz with big proteins like Beef and Lamb 
• Pinot Noir is a perfect pairing for Duck and lentils 
• Lamb and Cabernet is a match made in heaven 
• Roast Pork and Grenache is a great flavour marriage of weight and body
• Merlot and mushroom ragu – think earthy and soft 
• Chardonnay and Chicken – another great partnership that is harmonious
• Fiano and creamy seafood pasta with dill – Fiano’s fruit and acid works well with a creamy sauce
• Tempranillo with smoked meats, risotto or Paella – a simple Spanish combination
