Pairing Idea: This specific wine
Works really nicely with the crab cake, blends into the Maillard reaction with the crab cake. The wine tastes surprisingly more fruit driven, which blows my mind and is super fun. Even the apricot seems more lively, which is fascinating. The appearance of more fruit generosity ties in nicely with the luxuriousness of the crab. This has really good acidity and blends in with as opposed to erasing the crab cake from my palate. This lets the crab cake mingle on the palate.
