Issara comes in 5 varieties
Cabernet Sauvignon: Full-bodied with bright cassis aromas, concentrated herb and cocoa flavors. The lifted tannins go well with savory meats like satays, tandori, and even grilled pork.
Chardonnay: Scents of tangy citrus, with crisp flavors of green apple, Asian pear and hints of caramel. Its full flavors and creamy finish pair with crab, crispy duck salads, fish cakes with peanut sauce, and most sushi rolls.
Merlot: A lovely, plump Merlot with rich black cherry aromas and hints of toasted oak. Versatile enough to serve with foods like duck, laab, salmon teriyaki, and masaman curry dishes.
Cuvee White: Aromas of vanilla custard and green apple compliment this blend's tropical fruit flavors. Pairs well with green curries, white meat, and fish dishes. Varietal composition: 85% Chenin blanc, 15% Chardonnay, French Colombard, and Sauvignon Blanc
Cuvee Red: Eminently quaffable, this one goes down easy with or without food. Medium- bodied, lip-smacking and flavor-packed, it goes well with a wide range of meat dishes and red curries. Varietal composition: 87% - Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% - Merlot, Zinfandel, and Petite Syrah
