Seasonal fruit with vincotto and crème fraîche

Preparation time
5 minutes
Cooking time
8–10 minutes
Serves
6

INGREDIENTS

3 tbsp butter

6 peaches or 9 nectarines (or 9 figs or
6 pears in season), halved and stoned

90ml vincotto (see note)

1½ tsp lemon juice, or to taste

200g crème fraiche, to serve

METHOD

1. Melt butter over medium high heat in a medium fry pan. When foaming, add fruit and cook for a couple of minutes each side until just tender.

 

2. Pour over the vincotto. Allow to bubble up for a couple of minutes. Taste and adjust sweetness with lemon juice. 

 

TO SHARE: Serve fruit hot, warm or cold with the vincotto drizzled over and crème fraîche in a bowl on the side.

 

Lyndey’s note: vincotto is a centuries old condiment from Puglia in South-East Italy. It means “cooked wine” and is made from the reduction of grape must (unfermented grape skins) and has a delightful agro dolce or sweet and sour flavour. Sometimes it is infused with fruits like fig, apple, quince or lemon and even chilli. 

 

Wine match: To complement the vibrant flavours of the ripe, in-season fruit in this dish, you need a wine that’s bright, fresh and lively with a dry finish, and Sparkling is ideal.

Crispy Pork Belly with Abrolhos Island Scallops, Chicken & Wakame Consomeé & Sautéed Mushrooms
The regional abundance of The Wine State takes centre stage  once more with chef Chris Bone and his melding of pork, seafood and poultry flavours. The combination of crispy pork belly and juicy scallops intrigues the palate, while the flavoursome depth of the consommé is made even more apparent through the rich, full-bodied character of The Octogenarian Grenache's plum fruit core, savoury tannins and crisp line of acidity.
