Cabernet Sauvignon

Classic 2 dishes

Red · Full · Dry

The benchmark for full-bodied red — structured, age-worthy, unapologetic. Black currant, graphite, and tobacco lead into firm tannins that demand protein on the plate. Decant young bottles; cellar the serious ones.

Barbera

Interesting

Red · Medium · Dry

Piedmont's everyday red and Italy's secret food wine — high acid, low tannins, juicy red cherry, and a touch of earth. Pairs effortlessly with anything red-sauce.

Why it works with Pear Ravioli

Northern Italian red with bright acid handles pasta with tomato or meat sauce.

Chardonnay

Classic

White · Medium · Dry

The most-planted white grape and the most chameleon-like. Crisp and steely from Chablis; rich, oaky, and tropical from California. Read the label, then match the style to the dish.

Why it works with Ravioli Stuffed With Pears, Ricotta And Pecorino Cheese With A Butter Sage Sauce

Chardonnay's body matches soft and bloomy cheeses with grace.

Grenache

Classic

Red · Medium · Dry

The grape that puts the warmth in southern French reds — strawberry, raspberry, white pepper, and a finish that's all sun and stones. The backbone of Châteauneuf-du-Pape and rosé from Provence.

Why it works with Lamb Ravioli, Sweet Potato And Anjou Pear Puree, Crusted Candied Walnuts, Apple Cider Demi-glace

Grenache's warm fruit echoes lamb's natural sweetness, especially in Mediterranean preparations.

Malbec

Classic

Red · Full · Dry

Argentina's signature grape: deep purple, plummy, and remarkably smooth for its weight. Soft tannins and a touch of cocoa make it the dinner-party Cabernet alternative — and far easier on the wallet.

Why it works with Lamb Ravioli, Sweet Potato And Anjou Pear Puree, Crusted Candied Walnuts, Apple Cider Demi-glace

Plummy Malbec with grippy tannin pairs classically with red meat.

Sparkling · Light · Sweet

Asti's more refined sibling — gently frizzante, only 5-6% alcohol, all peach and orange blossom. The perfect summer dessert wine.

Why it works with Pear Ravioli

Light sweet sparkling with fresh fruit — the simplest dessert pairing that works.

Prosecco

Classic

Sparkling · Light · Off-dry

Veneto's everyday sparkler — Glera grape, charmat method, frothier and fruitier than Champagne. Pear, white flowers, easy fun. Made for aperitivo.

Why it works with Goat Cheese Pear Ravioli

Off-dry bubbles work from antipasti through to dessert — Italy's all-purpose sparkler.

Rioja

Classic

Red · Medium · Dry

Tempranillo-based blend from northern Spain, traditionally oak-aged into something quietly profound. Cherry, dill, vanilla, leather; great with lamb, paella, and aged Manchego.

Why it works with Lamb Ravioli, Sweet Potato And Anjou Pear Puree, Crusted Candied Walnuts, Apple Cider Demi-glace

Aged Rioja is the Iberian lamb pairing — cedar, leather, and bright acid.
