Wine recommendations for pasta
Not only Italian wine goes well with pasta, but also a strong red wine from South Africa or Portugal. Tomato sauces pair well with fruity, heavy reds such as Shiraz or Cabernet Sauvignon or Tinta Roriz, while cream sauces go well with a chilled rosé or fruity Chardonnay. If you are serving sugos with lots of vegetables, we would recommend a juicy, floral white wine.
Wine with food
Wine to go with....Perfect harmony of Portuguese and South African wines with food
