Fleurie Georges Duboeuf

The most favored of all the Beaujolais Cru, Fleurie enjoys a very floral bouquet with a refined, smooth taste. An elegant, beautifully made more-ish red with wild strawberry fruit and a fleshy texture.Buy this wine if you like: Light-bodied red with ripe fruit, perfect slightly chilled on a warm summer afternoon.

Description

After Jack-o-Lanterns and apple bobbing, what could be better?

Method

  1. 1

    1. Peel and deseed the pumpkin or squash, and cut the flesh into chunks (you should have about 1kg prepared weight). Peel, core and roughly chop the apples. Peel and finely chop the onion. Peel and crush the garlic cloves.
    2. In a deep pan, fry the onion and garlic in the butter until soft, 3-4 minutes. Season, stir in the spices, and fry for a minute more.
    3. Add the apple and pumpkin, cover and continue cooking for about 10 minutes. Add the stock and cider, bring just to the boil, then gently simmer for 20 minutes.
    4. Whiz or blend in batches. Check the seasoning and warm through to serve.
    5. FINISH if wished with slices of eating apple lightly fried in butter.
