Italian wines & Chinese food

[Scoop]

Not an easy match, and not a classic pairing. It also depends on the type of Chinese cuisine, too, which is, of course, very diverse.

A spicy and crisp medium-bodied Pinot Grigio from Trentino, like Ritratti, is a good and versatile choice. Acidity is key. On the red side, acidity and good fruit are needed, like in a Refosco from Friuli.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
