Wine with Leslie: These are my top bottles to pair with your Easter dinner

Slow roast lamb is actually better with a ripe malbec than claret in my view

Which wine should you pour this Easter?

Easter, roast lamb, and red wine is the classic springtime trifecta. But which red wine? In previous Easter columns I’ve suggested wines from typical lamb rearing regions such as Bordeaux, New Zealand, and of course Rioja and Ribera, but this year I’m suggesting malbec.

Ireland has strong connections with Argentina and they could do with a few of our euro while they attempt to kickstart their economy under their new president. I know that Javier Milei is a divisive figure among economists and I have no idea if his ideas will work but I’m rooting for him anyway. I always root for Argentina.
