We chose one of the largest in Spain to accompany these curious tidbits, because its diversity requires the presence of a powerful wine which in turn does not eclipse the different flavors of the filling.
It is a unique wine, with a limited production of only 4,000 bottles / year, Manual wine in boxes of 15 kilos, barrel fermentation, etc. In short, a very peculiar profiles wine that has been sought (and achieved), the balance between fruit and wood, with herbaceous nuances and light empyreumatic, and the traits of tropical fruit Chardonnay, but not cloying.
Dim sum
This kind of dumpling is a tradition in itself in China, because it is both in the streets, in small street carts, and elegant dining, especially a while now that the Chinese-American cuisine call ( the cheap restaurant on the corner), is giving way to the authentic cuisine of Canton, Chiuchow, Fujian, Hainan, Hakka, Hunan, Jiang-Huai, Shanghai, Sichuan, Yunnan and.
Pairing
Tried ten types of Dim Sum and each was diametrically opposed to this, but the result was a dazzling food, not only for snacks, but because the wine is kept elegant and respectful to adversity, that there was.
It is a marriage of high-flying, I admit, and I said that has nothing to do with the Chinese menu of the day, this is the new image of a refined China, with elegant dining asking wines at its height, like this one experience few.
