    Fillet of Hereford Beef with Creamed Celeriac and Mushroom SauceRecipe Jacob’s Creek Reserve and Simon Rimmer / Image Jacob’s Creek Reserve and Thomas Skovsende

    This is a cross bred cattle that is reared on the plains in Hereford where the pasture conditions are ideal for producing high quality flavoursome meat.  It’s the ultimate hybrid. Fat in the right places creates beautiful marbling but it’s low enough in fat also to produce beautiful quality. Match with Jacob’s Creek Reserve Barossa Shiraz.
