Shiraz
Barossa Valley Shiraz (centenary pre-phylloxera bush vines on clay-sand soils 60km NE of Adelaide) — jammy blackberry, ground black pepper, bitter chocolate and southern spices form the natural companion for Kashmiri lamb rogan josh; spicy power holding 3-hour braised meat, chocolate echoing the ruby colour of non-spicy Kashmiri paprika.
Malbec
Cahors (Malbec/Côt minimum 70%, limestone terraces of the Lot in the South-West) — black plum, summer truffle, spices and damp earth accompany lamb curry and Indian spices; rustic tannic structure holding lamb leg braised 4h in yoghurt-tomato, truffle echoing toasted cumin in masala, black fruit prolonging caramelised onion in the final tarka.
Gewurztraminer
Gewurztraminer, exotic and aromatic, creates a fragrant contrast with lamb curry.
