Perfect match

Aubergine parmesan is delicious, hearty and satisfying. The aubergine is layered with parmesan cheese and herby tomato sauce, then baked. The result is lots of richness with a creamy aubergine texture. The tomato sauce serves as a flavour platform and makes the aubergine and parmesan base notes work. The best wine needs enough richness to combat that of the dish. Silky fruit and loads of acidity will lighten the depth of the aubergine and parmesan.
