Beet Wellington

A plant-based twist on the classic Beef Wellington, this Beet Wellington is filled with roasted beets and mushrooms in a crispy puff pastry jacket. The alcohol-free red wine Xivi Sober Merlot, a non-alcoholic Merlot from Bordeaux with notes of chocolate, raisins and a soft woody finish, beautifully complements the earthy flavours of the beetroot, making this a special main course for a festive dinner.
