Pears in Vinsanto Reduction with Gorgonzola & Almond is an easy to make gourmet dish thanks to Chef Ilaria Carratù recipe. Impress your friends with taste! Ingredients Pears (1 per person) Gorgonzola cheese Almonds Sugar Farnito Vinsanto del Chianti 1999 red wine.

Preparation Pour the Farnito Vinsanto del Chianti 1999 in a small saucepan over low heat. Add water (about half a glass for two pears), sugar (about 5 teaspoons), mix and then put the peeled pears in the mixture. Do not chop pears. Let the pears boil. As soon as you feel them getting soft on the outside, remove the pears from the mixture and set aside. Continue heating the wine as we are looking to get a reduction sauce from the Vinsanto. Continue heating until you get a soft sauce consistency. Crush almonds until they are granulated. Slice the pears and lay them on a dish. Add cubes of gorgonzola around the pears and pour your Vinsanto reduction over the pears and cheese. Sprinkle with your crushed almonds. Enjoy! Wine Pairing: The best wine pairing for such a rich dish is a Farnito Vinsanto del Chianti 1999 of course! This 5-star dish deserves a 5-star bottle of wine!
