What it pairs with

  • Risotto allo zafferano Find risotto allo zafferano on TableJourney →
    Saffron risotto finds a foil in the wine's yellow apple and acacia honey; soft mousse handles the Carnaroli starch.
  • Pollo arrosto al limone
    Lemon roast chicken meets the wine's brioche and yellow peach; medium body holds up to the bird's roasted fat.
  • Lemon tart
    Fresh almond and acacia honey mirror the dessert; brut dosage keeps the pairing from cloying.
