Gato Negro Smooth Semi Sweet Rosé 8%

In general, fruit and berries are best accompanied by light beverages that will echo their sweetly fresh and fruity flavours.

Beverages for socialising are usually uncomplicated, with easily approachable flavours that don’t necessarily need to be accompanied by food. They also include beverages that suit a party atmosphere.

When pairing hot and spicy food with alcoholic beverages, beer is usually the best bet. A fresh, pale and relatively light beer works particularly well. If you opt for wine, you should also choose a light and crisp option to offset the spicy food, or maybe even something a little on the sweet side.

Most salads and vegetarian dishes go well with a fresh and reasonably light wine. When pairing them with beer, the best options are pale, crisp and relatively light beers.
