A pairing for our Joséphine et Frédéric Arnaud Côtes du Rhône. Recipe credit @eddmifflin

Our favourite kind of low-effort, maximum satisfaction meal for when proper cooking feels like a bit too much. Pair with a glass of our Syrah-based Côtes-du-Rhône and you've got yourself a party.

Ingredients

Camembert method

Unwrap the cheese and place it back in the box. Score the top.

Slice a clove of garlic to poke in the top of the cheese along with a couple of sprigs of rosemary. Finish with a drizzle of oil.

Bake in the oven for 15-20 mins.

Assemble the plate and serve and a generous glass of Côtes du Rhône.

We’ve been on the hunt for a Syrah based Côtes-du-Rhône for a while, and the team were united in selecting this stunning example. Made by winemakers Joséphine and Frédéric Arnaud, whose vineyards are surrounded by beautiful woodland renowned for its truffles. This is an elegant, fruit focused yet full-bodied red.

+What it tastes like: Packed with generous black and red berried-fruit with a twist of black pepper and spice, so typical of good Syrah. The palate has plentiful, yet silky tannins and an appealing freshness on the finish.
+What it goes with: This would be especially enjoyable with chargrilled or roasted meats, yet equally good with cheese and cornichons.
