Wine & Food #5: Pinot Grigio, Garda D.O.C

When having a glass of wine with your dinner, you want to make sure it’s the best pairing possible to get to achieve an optimal flavour combination. A bad food and wine pairing can risk leaving a bitter taste in your mouth.

That’s why we’ve decided to create a cheat sheet of food and wine pairings you really can’t go wrong with. We will be working our way through our ranges, up next ….

Pinot Grigio, Garda D.O.C
Made from the finest grapes from the picturesque Garda region in northern Italy

“Pairings you really can’t go wrong with”

The takeaway: Sushi
This might not be the first thing you think of when you’re reaching for a glass of Pinot Grigio, but it really works! Fresh fish pairs perfectly with the lemon and high acid characterics of a Pinot Grigio, giving your sushi just the right amount of zing.

The homemade dish: Hearty Salad
A big hearty salad packed full of crisp green leaves, fresh cold vegetables, and lightly coated in a Caesar dressing is the ideal pairing for our Pinot Grigio. The fruity yet floral flavours and hints of citrus, mix flawlessly. Making this an all-around refreshing combo.

The light dinner: Seafood pasta
Through together a seafood pasta or risotto if you’re feeling fancy! Don’t squeeze a lemon on your dish, simply let our Pinot Grigio take over all citrus needs – you won’t regret it.
