“What should I open with roast lamb?”
Cella
I’d open your 2016 Château Grand Corbin-Despagne, a Merlot-led Saint-Émilion with the concentration to match lamb’s rich flavour. The meat’s protein and fat soften the impression of tannin, while the wine’s acidity refreshes the palate between bites. Dark plum fruit provides a counterpoint to the savoury meat; cedar and earthy nuances should harmonise with rosemary and the browned crust. Roasting mellows garlic’s pungency, allowing the wine’s fruit and bouquet to show. A particularly good match for a rosemary-and-garlic roast.
Make the most of the bottle
Talk through serving temperature, decanting and food pairings. If you would rather open something lighter or save a special bottle, Cella can suggest another wine from your cellar.
Advice that reflects your taste
Your favourite grapes and styles, along with the wines you rate highly, help Cella understand what you enjoy. Ask her for something familiar or a wine that takes you a little further afield.
