Description Serve Alpenzu’s pears in red wine syrup for an easy, elegant Italian dessert. The pairing of the Martin Sec pears and red wine is one that is steeped in tradition. The story goes that these small rusty pears are harvested on the 11th of November – Saint Martin’s day – the same day the new wine is tasted, hence the match.Gently warm the sweet, spiced pears, then serve them with a scoop of vanilla gelato or mascarpone. Alternatively, enjoy the pears alongside goat’s cheese and walnuts at the start of your meal. Enjoy a taste of Italy’s mountainous produce with Alpenzu’s jams, spreads, sauces and vinegars. Based in Valle d’Aosta, a region of northwest Italy bordered by France and Switzerland, Alpenzu has been creating the finest preserves since 2001. The combination of modern technology alongside ancient traditions, family recipes and local ingredients is what makes Alpenzu’s range extra special.Product formulations and details may change.
