Meia Serra Reserva 2017

Pasta itself has a neutral flavour, so your choice of beverage will largely be influenced by the other ingredients, such as sauces, fillings and spices. To accompany pasta and pizza, it’s worth choosing a beverage that has the same level of richness as the food.

Pork is milder than, for example, beef. So your beverage choices should also be on the lighter side.

Almost any red wine will work with beef, as long as it’s full-bodied enough. You can also opt for full-bodied beers with beef.

Casseroles are usually rich in flavour yet quite smooth due to their long cooking times. A similarly rich and smooth beverage will therefore work well with them. If your food is very fatty, you can cut it with a well-balanced beverage.
