Being one of the country’s most popular chefs, Paul Askew has a reputation for gastronomic excellence within the world of fine-dining and has selected Gusbourne’s Chardonnay Guinevere as the ideal complement to his Confit Leg and Breast of Chicken Asparagus masterpiece.
The rich, ripe fruit and smoky minerality of our Chardonnay Guinevere provides the perfect companion to any chicken based recipe. We also recommend pairing our wine’s beautiful citrus flavour with Chinese steamed dumplings or dim sum, where the richness of the fillings, be it chicken, pork, prawn or veggie, blend in harmony with the tropical fruit and creamy oak notes of our Chardonnay.
