Summer's fusion recipe is a nice change over the usual; it combines anchovies along with garlic, red wine vinegar and olive oil adding an explosion of flavors to the boring eggplant!

Wine note 葡萄酒笔记
Summer chose our el perro verde to pair with this mouthwatering tapas. This verdejo is a dry, fruity and refreshing wine with complex aromas. Intense on the nose with an explosion of peaches, passionfruit and unctuous smoothness on the palate.
Verdejo is an uncommon, light-bodied herbaceous white wine that grows almost exclusively in the Rueda region of Spain. The wine is an outstanding alternative to wines like Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Grigio, with surprising changes in flavors coming with age. A perfect match for appetizers and fish-based rice dishes, prawns, shellfish.
Summer选择了我们的青犬贝德候白葡萄酒来搭配这款令人垂涎的小吃。这款弗德乔是一款干型、果味和清新的葡萄酒，具有复杂的香气。风味丰满，带着桃子与热情果气息，口感顺滑，有种在口腔中爆发的感觉。
弗德乔是一种不常见的、酒体轻盈的草本白葡萄酒，几乎只生长在西班牙的卢埃达地区。这款酒是长相思和灰皮诺等葡萄酒的杰出替代品，随着陈年的到来，风味会发生令人惊喜的变化。它是开胃菜和以鱼为主的米饭菜、大虾、贝类的最佳搭配。
Anchovies are packed with umami, the savory fifth taste, which adds depth to dishes and is great for your health too!
凤尾鱼充满了鲜味，这是第五种咸味，增加了菜肴的深度，对您的健康也很有帮助！
