With their sharp vinegar flavor, pickles tend to eclipse most wines. The only one that can take up the challenge is a Fino sherry with a good structure.
Pickled Sticks
Preparation
Make the banderillas simply by using a cocktail-stick to join together one gherkin, one piece of green pepper, an olive, one piece of red pepper and one onion. With these quantities you can make 2 sticks for each person.
