Lamb koftas with RW Beaukett
Indulge in lamb koftas and a glass of RW Beaukett wine, where the bold flavours of the meat complement the fruity notes of the wine.
Lamb koftas are a Middle Eastern delicacy that can be enjoyed as a snack, appetiser, or a main course. These flavourful ‘meatballs’ are traditionally made with ground lamb, mixed with aromatic spices, and grilled to perfection.
When paired with a glass of red wine, such as the RW Beaukett, the bold flavours of the lamb koftas are perfectly balanced with the fruity notes of the wine.
