Discover the perfect wine pairings for your favourite Italian dishes. Whether it's a pasta or a seafood risotto, we’ve got the perfect wine to complement your meal.
Wine is an integral part of Italian dining, with each region producing unique wines that perfectly complement its local dishes. At La Casa Nutley, we carefully select wines that pair beautifully with our menu, ensuring you experience Italy’s best flavours in harmony.
Pasta with Tomato Sauce: A Light Red Like Sangiovese
Tomato-based pasta sauces, such as Spaghetti Pomodoro, pair wonderfully with light red wines. Sangiovese, Italy’s most famous red grape variety, complements the acidity of the tomatoes, balancing the flavours and enhancing the dish.
Seafood Risotto: A Crisp White Like Vermentino
For our seafood risotto, nothing beats a crisp, fresh white wine like Vermentino. Its vibrant acidity and citrus notes perfectly complement the rich, creamy texture of the risotto and the delicate flavours of the seafood.
Pizza Margherita: A Rosé or Young Red Like Chianti
For a simple and satisfying pizza like Margherita, a light and fruity wine works best. A young Chianti or even a refreshing rosé will enhance the flavours of the fresh mozzarella and basil without overwhelming the palate.
Roast Meat or Stews: A Full-Bodied Red Like Barolo
For heartier dishes like Osso Buco or a rich Beef Stew, we recommend a full-bodied red wine like Barolo or Brunello di Montalcino. These wines bring depth and complexity, perfectly complementing the robust flavours of the meat.
Dessert Like Tiramisu: A Sweet Wine Like Moscato d'Asti
For dessert, Tiramisu pairs wonderfully with a sweet, sparkling wine like Moscato d'Asti. The wine’s light sweetness and bubbles balance the richness of the creamy dessert, making it the perfect ending to your Italian meal.
Wine and food are meant to be enjoyed together, creating a complete sensory experience. At La Casa Nutley, we’ve carefully curated a selection of wines to enhance the flavours of our authentic Italian dishes. Let us guide you in selecting the perfect pairing for your next meal.
