This is one of my go to recipes. When I tasted Lanzerac’s Le General I knew these shanks will be the perfect match for that great wine. I am so happy to share this recipe with you. I hope this recipe will end up in your repertoire. Use the best wine you can afford it really makes a huge difference in taste.
