Wine Tip
Riesling, Beerenauslese, 2011
Only the best Riesling grapes provide this sweet taste sensation. The wine bewitches with its fruity vitality and is the perfect accompaniment to full-flavored desserts. When chilled between 11 – 13°C/54°F the aromas unfold at their best.
Step 1
Preheat oven to 180°C/355°F. Cut off ends of zucchini and roughly grate using the large holes of a box grater.
