This month’s wine pack is very dear to my heart as it showcases some beautiful wines from my favourite Spanish region: Marco de Jerez. It’s compiled in collaboration with wine importer and Sherry guru, Scott Wasley from The Spanish Acquisition who is very generously offering a 40% discount off the RRP of $164.

Email me and I’ll arrange for Scott to send you an invoice so you can transfer payment to him.


 

Menu 1 – Callejuela Blanco de Hornillos Vino Blanco 2021 (RRP $37.25)

Made from the classic Jerez grape, palomino, this pale gold wine has a dusty, savoury nose and tart, grippy, moreish palate. It hails from Sanlúcar de Barrameda, home of Manzanilla, but unlike Sherry, it’s aged in stainless steel without flor. It has an herbaceous, floral nose and a nice minerality with a hint of iodine. The faint bitterness at the end balances the richness of the marmitako very well.


 

Menu 2 – Gutiérrez Colosía Oloroso Sherry, 375ml (RRP $41.25)

Rich, nutty Amontillados and Olorosos captivate many experienced Sherry lovers. This pale bronze wine from a small family bodega in Puerto de Santa Maria, on the Atlantic coast southwest of Jerez de la Frontera, is such a wine. It smells like maple-roasted walnuts and tastes of hazelnut and dark tea with a lovely long dry, savoury finish that’s a perfect match for our sweetly spicy Romesco sauce and juicy lamb cutlets.


 

Menu 3 – Delgado Zuleta ‘La Goya’ Manzanilla, 375ml (RRP $27.50)

Manzanilla started my love affair with Sherry and this classic pasada version, aged for 8 years (almost double the normal time), reminds me why! Pale gold despite its age, bottled before the flor died off, it still has simple seaside flavours with a lovely seashell minerality and finesse. Its bone-dry finish makes it the perfect allrounder with our selection of tapas, to cut through the oil and balance the sweetness of onion and tomato.


 

Menu 4 – Corta y Raspa Vino de Pasto, Miraflores Alta 2020 (RRP $58)

The Corta y Raspa label represents a collective of small growers making their own low-yield, high-quality palomino wine in Sanlúcar de Barrameda rather than selling their grapes for a minimal amount to the large bodegas. This wine, from José Garcia Gordillo, is aged for 12 months in very old barrels (bota) without flor and has a lovely salinity and minerality to cut through the richness of the garlic chicken. There’s a savoury hit of curry leaf on the nose and I love the touch of sourness at the end to offset the sweetness of the onion!

We made the pot-sticker dumplings and bang bang chicken – once again both exceeded our expectations. My husband keeps saying it’s better ordering this than going out to restaurants as the recipes and food quality are amazing.

I loved the Fresh & Easy Chicken – simple instructions, only a few ingredients and the time factor absolutely spot on. Then came the highlight, the taste, no compromise on the enjoyment of that meal! For the time poor Fresh & Easy hits the mark indeed.

Thank you for stocking our pantry with such authentic ingredients and quality produce ... I’ve so enjoyed picking fresh leaves from the herb pots and loved listening to the chef's playlist while cooking. We really like the flexibility of cooking over a couple of days and changing the order we cook the dishes in when we want to.

I am absolutely loving these boxes! There are ingredients I have never worked with before so having the confidence to try something new is so much fun! The recipes are just amazing and the notes on what can be prep’d beforehand are a great help too. Thank you so much.

Thanks so much for the Fresh & Easy Meal, it was excellent. We regularly get another meal kit delivery – your offering is vastly superior and a similar price, so big ticks.

I'm a competent cook whose learned so much from the Recipes+Videos Packs. The recipes are yummy and Roberta’s video guidance offers so many little tips to improve flavour and organise the flow of preparation. I enjoy her warmth, sense of humour, and ability to giggle at herself when she occasionally messes up.
