Baron de Ley Club Privado Reserva Rioja

The Baron de Ley winery was founded by a prestigious group of Rioja professionals in 1985. They were quite unique in their approach as they modelled the winery on a Medoc chateaux, which was a pioneering move at that time for producers in the Denominacion de Origen Calificada Rioja. This wine is aged in new oak casks for 20 months prior to resting in the bottle for 2 years before release. It has definite claret qualities; the nose is layered with ripe cherry, toasty oak and a touch of cigar box. Lively, ripe, red fruit with dried tobacco and nutty vanilla overtones, round tannins with an expressive woody finish. Rioja wine can be excellent value for money and has terrific cellaring potential. Buy this wine if you like: Well rounded reds, with soft fruit and toasty character, easy drinking for upfront pleasure.

Description

Serve this hearty layered fish pie with broccoli and baby carrots.

Method

1
Put the four fish fillets in a pint of milk and gently simmer for five minutes. Remove fish and set aside to cool. Boil eggs until hard. Cool, shell, then cut into quarters. Reheat the milk that the fish was cooked in and add the tarragon. Thicken with cornflour to make a sauce and add salt and black pepper to taste. Now cut the fish into chunks. Arrange in an oven proof dish with the egg quarters and then scatter the prawns on top. Pour the sauce over the mix. Now slice the tomatoes thinly and arrange evenly over the sauce. Boil and cool the potatoes, then mash with the remaining milk and butter. Spread the mash over the fish and tomatoes in the oven proof dish. Put the bread in a food processor with the basil, paprika and parmesan. Add salt and black pepper, to taste. Then process into fine bread crumbs. Sprinkle on top of the mash. Drizzle with the olive oil, but not too much (an oil spray is ideal for this). Bake in a pre-heated oven at gas mark 7 220 C for 40/45 minutes until golden brown.
