Tetsuya Wakudu’s Slow roasted snapper with olive, capers and tomato recipe

Another great dish to enjoy with a mid-weight, GSM-style, however, it would also be delicious with a mouth-watering Pinot, such as the Red Claw Pinot Noir 2016 from the Mornington Peninsula  which pairs beautifully with the savoury spice in this dish, but isn’t overpowered.   

Riesling is always lovely with the delicate, savoury nature of sushi and sashimi. We love the Henschke Julius Riesling  from South Australia’s Eden Valley , which allures with notes of lime, fresh flowers, jasmine and river stone on the nose. The palate presents a zesty, youthful and energetic line of pure lime and river stone, while a precise vein of acidity drives all the flavours across the entire palate.

We’re proud to say that we’re a fourth generation family wine business with the third generation – Darren, Leanne, Kevin and Victor De Bortoli – the current custodians. Our Villages Yarra Valley Pinot Noir is enjoyable all year round. We chill it ever so slightly in summer and find it an appealing drink in winter. It is also a good style of wine that goes with a variety of foods or is just as pleasant on its own. A heavenly match is fresh picked figs off our mother, Emeri’s tree, wrapped in prosciutto and served with parmesan crisps. One of her favourite dishes to make for our family is chicken liver risotto. We have always enjoyed it and now our children often request ‘Nonna’s risotto.’ "My family often demand this dish and often it’s all my grandchildren want to eat...and if they come back for seconds, who am I to argue!"
