— Food pairing

At the table.

Tested at our own service. Works particularly well with white fish · poultry · shellfish.

Sommelier note

Open 30 minutes before service. Decant for younger vintages. Avoid over-chilling — serve closer to the warmer end of the recommended range when paired with richer dishes.
