the perfect pair — WINE & PASTA
Pasta and a fine wine! Best of friends at any dinner party. Tomato-based pasta with beef pairs well with the rich, tart flavour of Sangiovese. Seafood pasta with shrimp or scallops or clams would match ideally with the fresh, and slightly bitter flavours of a Pinot Grigio. Pasta primavera with cream sauce and vegetables needs a wine with lively acidity to compliment the flavours of the food dish. Sauvignon Blanc would pair nicely. Cheesy pasta dishes need a wine with a bright, fruity component like a Pinot Noir to emphasize the luscious mouthfeel of the food.
