Italie

Produced by Renato Buganza, this lovely orange wine is made from 100% Arneis macerated on the skins. With notes of dried chamomile, orange stone fruit, bay leaf and citrus, it's a nice orange table wine to pair with grilled chicken dishes like this. See the product

Limonade Rosée, 3.8%

Dieu du Ciel!

Tart wheat beer with grapefruit, lemon and cherry, this Lemonade will offer you straightforward citrus flavours with a light finish of delicate cherry. The citrus flavors of this beer will join those of the recipe while pleasing the mint of the pita. The beer is refreshing, but so is its acidity and low alcohol content. Serve chilled to enhance the lemon flavours and its acidity for even more freshness in this pairing. See the product
