We are in winter, a season with extreme weather, short days, and long nights. We tell you which wines cannot be missing from your home so that you can enjoy this time of year to the fullest.
When the cold starts to show, there are few things more comforting than staying at home enjoying the warmth of home. Winter brings not only extreme temperatures and short days but also the possibility of enjoying indoors.
As it happens at other times of the year, during this season, usually, our habits change. In addition to taking out thick clothes, blankets, and quilts to keep us warm at night, we also change the way we eat.
Light dishes, fresh fruit, and ice cream are now a thing of the past. Stews, kinds of pasta, meats, soups, and legumes become part of most lunches and dinners inside the houses. And, to accompany these dishes, nothing better than uncorking a bottle.
Wine is the ideal complement to winter cuisine. But, beyond personal preferences, it is important to know which varieties are the most suitable to accompany this type of food and to fight against low temperatures.
During the coldest time of the year, red wines are mainly recommended. Why? Because, during the winter, it is common for the intake of caloric dishes to increase considerably, and this type of varietals have a higher concentration of tannins, substances that help dissolve the fat from the food.
However, if you want to uncork a white wine, the choice must include bottles that are aged in wood, so that they have more body and can be perceived as more unctuous on the palate.
Do you want to know which bottles you can enjoy at home this winter season? Write down these tips:
Bright carmine red is a variety with a marked taste of red and black fruits, such as cherries, raspberries, blackberries, and plums. Cinnamon, rose and aniseed flavors can also be perceived.
The dishes that go well with pinot noir are pasta accompanied by sauces prepared with meats, soft cheeses, fish, chicken, and mushrooms. It also goes very well with bitter chocolate.
This variety also has a marked aroma of black fruits, with a predominance of blackberries and blueberries, which bring freshness and softness to the palate of those who choose to enjoy it.
Winter dishes that go perfectly with this varietal are those that contain red meat, pork, and game, as well as spicy foods and intensely flavored cheeses, such as Roquefort.
Emblematic wine of Argentina, the Malbec is one of the most chosen not only in cold seasons but throughout the year.
This varietal pairs perfectly with red meats, mainly those that are cooked on the grill. It is also a good choice to accompany stews, pasta with tomato sauce, and hard cheeses.
Owner of an aroma of red fruits, such as currants, blackberries, and cherries, combined with a hint of spice and pepper, Merlot is another classic to enjoy winter at home.
It is the ideal complement for casserole dishes, meals with vegetables and white meats. It also goes perfectly with fatty cheeses.
