Alemany i Corrió, Principia Mathematica, DO Penedès, Spain, 2021
Tasting Note
Crisp white fruit and apricot nose with a light nutty element and a Meursault-esque butteriness. The aromas open up and become richer but still perfectly balanced. Dry, soft but fresh acidity. A lovely depth of mineral laced, grassy white fruit with hints of apricot and nuts.
Food Matching
Most definitely with seafood but it’s a far more versatile wine than that and would work with grilled pork sausage or even flame roasted lamb chops finished with a sprinkling with fresh rosemary.

Escocesa is a neighbourhood tapas spot in Stoke Newington, where all the seafood is sourced from Scotland.
This means juicy Orkney scallops, octopus with white bean purée and capers, and grilled Shetland mussels.
Vibe-wise it's a popular date spot and, if that’s what you’re after, you’ll want a spot at the bar. It’s moodily lit, classy but casual, and there’s a view of the action—perfect to enjoy a few plates and a couple of glasses.

Tuna tartare or art?? We think both.
Marinated with sesame oil, fresh lime, Sherry vinegar and served with avocado and coriander.
A must try in our menu.
