Ideal white wines for romantic dinners
To begin, usher in the appetizer with a Pinot Bianco from Alto Adige or a Ribolla Gialla del Collio. Try oysters with Malvasia Istriana del Carsio. Make a pasta or rice dish irresistible by pairing with a Tuscan Batàr, appreciated for its balanced structure and aromas. Finally, end on a high note by enhancing a second course of fish baked in foil with a Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi, offering pleasantly fresh, fruity notes.
Pairings
The art of pairing wine with food should be an enjoyable journey of discovery, in which everyone goes their own way as they try bottle after bottle, dish after dish. Here are some simple tips to get you started. Pair a fresh glass of white wine with a light dish based on grilled fish or white meats. For the appetizer, opt for mild, fresh cheeses, while as a first course you could try a classic of Italian cuisine such as seafood risotto. For the main course, we suggest tasty but light dishes such as gilt-head sea bream baked in foil or octopus and potato salad.
