Quick Reference
What is it?: An organic Spanish finishing salt combining Petalos salt flakes with Syrah red wine.
Flavour: Salty, fruity and lightly tannic with the deep red character of Syrah.
Common uses: Finish meat, cheese, salads and roasted vegetables where both colour and wine flavour add interest.
Pairs well with: Beef, lamb, cheese, mushrooms, tomatoes and roast roots.
Compare with: More tannic and fruit-led than plain flake salt, and less herbal than wild-garlic wine salt.
Substitute: Mix a flake salt with a small amount of reduced red wine, though the texture will not be identical.
Storage: Keep sealed in a cool, dry place away from steam and moisture. For smoked or delicate finishing salts, close the pack promptly to protect their aroma and crystal texture.
Good to know: The Syrah contributes more than colour: its dark-fruit and tannic character gives the salt a noticeably wine-like finish.
