Borscht

Borscht is a hearty soup featuring tender chunks of beef simmered with vibrant beets, crisp cabbage, and earthy potatoes. The vegetables are gently cooked until they meld together, creating a rich, flavorful broth with a distinctive red hue. A touch of sourness balances the sweetness of the beets, resulting in a comforting and satisfying bowl of soup.

The hearty and sour flavors of Borscht, a simmered soup with beetroot, cabbage, carrots, chuck, potato, parsley, and tomato, pair well with a sparkling white wine like Malvasia. The wine's effervescence and light body will refresh the palate between spoonfuls of the rich soup, while its subtle sweetness complements the earthy vegetables and balances the dish's sour notes.
