Recipe Needed to Match Wine

[M.J.S]

Hi PH'ers,

I'm a fan of a good red, and I've managed to get a nice bottle of Château la Nerthe 2004.
So I thought I'd try and cook up something that would go with the wine. I was thinking to do something like 2-3 courses and maybe get another bottle of something nice to compliment it all.

Can anyone suggest a meal to go with the wine and maybe another bottle to go with it all?

Thanks!

If this is a Cuvée des Cadettes 2004, then I think you should come back in at least 10 years time with this question....

10 years... I'll be really hungry by then....

Presuming you mean the red, Pape generally works with "big" food - stews, cassoulet, beouf bourgignon, hearty soups or heavily flavoured roasts & steaks (Beef Wellington, herbed lamb). Avoid salt.

And I agree - Parker suggests something that would take five or more years to cook...
