Our sommeliers suggest
Sartori Valpolicella Superiore
This red from North-Italy that has a good acidity will seem rounder because of the acidity of the tomato.
See the product
Berliner Weisse, Les Trois Mousquetaires
The acidity and the citrus notes of this Berliner Weisse add freshness to this summery dish. The lactic feel of the beer and the cheese will melt together to make an explosion of basil in your mouth!
