What Wines Go With Duck?

Firstly let me point out that I’m not a Wine Expert by any means. I do like to think though that I’m not to bad when it comes to choosing wines and my son is very good so I’m mostly led my him. We both love Duck though. Yes, alright enough with the Quack Quack jokes and Bet your’e a right little Quacker Carol. No I’m not. I’m seventy years old and when I was in my teens my drink of choice was a Babycham with a cherry on a stick in it.

So if Jack and I have a couple of roast duck legs with a red wine sauce (so who needs to worry about cooking the sauce from scratch). Use a bottle from the supermarket if you want to). We would go for Piron Beajolais-Villages.

Next a Palumbo. A red hug in a glass type wine at £6.99 which we both love.

But in saying that, I live by one rule. Whatever wine you love or you can afford – drink it! If you want white wine with Duck then drink it! In our world why spoil a perfectly good meal because someone tells you that you MUST drink an expensive red wine with Duck because thats what the rules say?

So enjoy your Duck and drink whatever you want.

Cheers!
