Autumn has a close relationship with wine, as it brings new aromas, opens up new pairing possibilities and allows new flavours to emerge, helping us to enjoy wine in a different way.
Autumn and Wine: Aroma, Pairing and Flavours
The arrival of autumn and the drop in temperatures invite us to enjoy wine differently. Gone are the high temperatures, the harsh daylight hours, and the irregular mealtimes. It’s time for warmth, orange hues, new seasonal products, relaxed meals — and a good glass of wine.
At WINERYON, we believe that with the arrival of autumn come new ways to enjoy our DEMUERTE wines. Experiences linked to new pairings that we want to encourage you to explore. To help with that, we suggest several itineraries that connect autumn with wine, so you can enjoy each of our DEMUERTE wines in the best possible way. Here they are:
Autumn and Wine 1: It’s Hunting Season
With the arrival of autumn, hunting season begins, and our tables are filled with game meats such as wild boar. For these occasions, we recommend a powerful, robust wine with hints of wood and red fruits — like our DEMUERTE DELUXE. A wine that pairs beautifully with red meats and enhances the flavour of game dishes.
Autumn and Wine 2: Mushrooms Arrive
With the humidity of autumn, mushrooms flourish in our forests and, once harvested, find their way to our plates. No matter how they’re prepared, mushrooms pair wonderfully with wine — especially lighter ones such as our DEMUERTE ROSÉ, which enhances the mushroom’s earthy notes with touches of strawberry, cherry, and fresh herbs that you’ll love.
Autumn and Wine 3: Pumpkin Creations
Pumpkin is the star ingredient of many autumn dishes. It’s at its most flavourful and most abundant during this season. Regardless of the variety you use, it always pairs perfectly with our DEMUERTE ONE, thanks to its slightly spiced character that complements the natural sweetness of pumpkin beautifully.
Autumn and Wine 4: Wine and Cheese
Autumn allows us to bring back aged cheeses without worrying about the excess heat. To cleanse the palate and enjoy the perfect appetizer, there’s nothing better than combining cheese with wine. Our DEMUERTE BLACK is an ideal choice, offering balsamic notes of ripe fruit and candied currants that, along with its spiced character, evoke sweet spices such as paprika, cinnamon, and cocoa.
Autumn and Wine 5: Chestnuts and Other Nuts
This time of year, chestnut trees offer their fruits so we can enjoy them warm and roasted — ideally with a good sip of wine. In this case (and with other autumn nuts), there’s no better match than our DEMUERTE GOLD, which features hints of pepper, nutmeg, and clove — simply irresistible.
Autumn and Wine 6: Time for Sweets
Sweets return to our tables loaded with honey, nuts, and dough… and to complete them, nothing works better than a glass of wine that refreshes and cleanses the palate while rounding out the gastronomic experience. At WINERYON, we recommend our DEMUERTE CLASSIC for these occasions.
A wine made from Monastrell and Syrah grapes, with an intense violet-red colour, and well-defined notes of black and red fruit. It has a complex background of oak, pastry, balsamic notes, spices, and hints of vanilla. A smooth sip that perfectly crowns an autumn afternoon full of sweet treats.
Autumn DEMUERTE
With all this, from WINERYON we welcome autumn and invite you to make the most of it — always in good company and with our wines. Because there’s no better pairing than that made with quality ingredients and exceptional products on the table. A journey into the world of flavour that we’re sure you’ll enjoy every moment of.
