Think outside of the wine box

Rimon’s of Isreal says its pomegranate wines give an unashamedly different take on a traditional Spring menu of roast leg of lamb with thyme and garlic. Pomegranate Dry Wine has a bouquet of rich pomegranate with a faint hint of spice and a well-balanced, soft finish that complements the succulent flavours of lamb.

Follow with a Rich Chocolate Fondant with Pomegranate Dessert Wine – this wine's cherry flavours and underpinning peppery taste combined with its hints of tropical fruits, honey and subtle pomegranate make it an ideal pairing for chocolate puddings - or even just an Easter egg.

The finally, with the cheese, Rimon’s Port Style wine with its nose of stone fruits and sweet spices teams well with strong cheeses.
