Torre Rosazza Pinot Grigio 2014
La Chasse-Pinte
A nice wine to pair with these zesty pasta, with its aromas of bee wax, exotic fruits, spices and a lemon finish. A smooth texture and a nice mineral side that wraps it all well. Ah... and a nice spring feeling that comes along !

Saison de Sarrasin, 6%
La Chasse-Pinte
Sausage season embellished with grapefruit bark, jamaica spice and coriander seeds, spicy, cereal aromas and slightly toasted of this beer will join the dominant aromas of the recipe: those of Brussels cabbage. The vegetable and slightly bitter notes of the cabbage will like each other accompanied by the grilled, stirred and warm notes of beer! A little more spice in our lives!
