Greek Kiwi and Sweet Bordeaux Wines: New Pairings for Menus
Greek kiwifruit from Imathia can offer foodservice professionals a versatile ingredient for creating original pairings with Sweet Bordeaux Wines. Its fresh and naturally tangy profile can be brought into dialogue with the sweetness and aromatic complexity of these wines.
The Charming Taste of Europe offers a few ideas for highlighting their characteristics through simple pairings suited to a variety of menu options.
Cérons AOP, for example, can accompany fresh kiwifruit preparations, ceviche, or dishes featuring citrus elements, where the fruit’s acidity helps keep the pairing lively.
With Cadillac AOP, kiwifruit can be incorporated into softer and creamier preparations, such as a yogurt dessert, panna cotta, or light cheesecake, creating a contrast between the wine’s sweetness and the fruit’s freshness.
Sainte-Croix-du-Mont AOP can instead accompany kiwifruit in more structured pairings, for example with fresh or soft-ripened cheeses and fresh fruit, for a simple yet distinctive way to round off a menu.
The combination of Greek kiwifruit from Imathia and Sweet Bordeaux Wines opens up new creative possibilities for foodservice, bringing ingredients and wines to the menu that can enhance each other.
