Roasted duck
Roasted duck offers rich, savory flavors with rendered fat and crispy skin that pairs beautifully with wines that provide enough acidity to cut through the richness while complementing the meat's gamey qualities. For beer pairings, styles with malty sweetness and moderate carbonation help cleanse the palate while the caramel and dark fruit notes enhance the duck's complex flavors.
