Tender lamb is enrobed in something special here, a sauce combining the tannin-ness of red wine with the subtle and unique sweetness of fig preserves. It's the kind of sauce you want to sop up, painting your plate with the reddish remnants as you try to savor every drop. And you'll have as your brush not only lamb; potatoes and carrots flavored with herbaceous, wondrous rosemary make for a delightful accompaniment and another sop for the sauce. Is it all about the sauce? Not at all, and in no way were we paid by Big Sauce to advertise such a delicious, perfect sauce. This press conference is over. End transmission.
