SERVES & SIPS // Episode four is here, and this time we’re serving creamy flavours and savoury finishes. Silky, delicate and full of seasonal flavours, our burrata starter is paired beautifully with a glass of Ciello Bianco. This Sicilian white wine brings soft stone fruit notes and a subtle nutty finish that ties the whole dish together perfectly.

Take Josh’s word for it, this is a pairing you won’t want to miss this spring!
